The successful nine week Couch to 5K programme, which is aimed at complete beginners and non-runners, meets at 5.45pm every Monday and Wednesday at the Harriers' Herringthorpe Stadium base, staRting on September 11.

The course builds up to a 5k run gradually through a mixture of walking and light running while stepping up the workload on a weekly basis.

Previous programmes have proved very popular with several members continuing their running with the club once Couch to 5K has finished.
