Most clubs across the Fitmums & Friends network will be delivering grass track or coached hill sessions this spring/summer, thanks to a team of volunteer coaches and assistant coaches. Sessions are listed below.
Fitmums & Friends coached sessions are suitable for EVERYONE: steady runners, speedy runners, 1-mile runners, 6+ mile runners, fitness walkers and Nordic walkers. How? Well, coaches can adapt session plans to meet the needs and abilities of those attending so that everyone works at their own pace and level.
You can attend any grass track session anywhere - join in at your own club or take a trip to another club. Coached sessions are included in your membership and are open to members aged 16+.
Find your next session below. (We recommend you also check your club's Facebook page for any updates about sessions - just in case of any last-minute cancellations or changes.)
What is a grass track session?
A grass track session includes a warm-up, drill work (to focus on good running technique), the main run/walk workout, and finishes with a stretch. Grass track sessions will add variety to your training, helping to make you a fitter, stronger and faster runner or walker. You can learn more about the sessions and how you would benefit from taking part in this article.
