This week saw the start of the new Sixfields Ladies Running Group in a joint venture between Jog Northants and Rugby & Northampton AC.
The group caters for those new to jogging or have dabbled a little but not continued. R&N have run a successful ladies group at their Rugby site for the past four years.
That group currently has more than 150 members and runs on a Saturday morning and it was felt that a similar group could be created for the Northampton side.
The group is led by Beverley Simms, who is also an athletics coach at the club.
She also leads two jogging groups in Brixworth. She is ably assisted with this new group by two other qualified female coaches.
The group is based on a 16-week programme, run on Tuesdays from 6pm-6.30pm.
There is still time to book onto the programme which costs £25, payable in advance.
There are still places available and you can book your place by going to the following link www.regonline.com/sixfieldsladiesrunninggroup. Further information can be obtained by emailing Beverley at sixfieldsrunninggroup@gmail.com.
