    09.Nov.09 First 'Run in England' group launches in Nottingham

    Fitness guru and leading personal trainer Cathy Faughey (left) is launching the very first Run in England group in Nottingham on November 23rd to encourage, support and guide beginner runners within the West Bridgford area of the City.

    The new Run in England group will meet every Monday evening at Cathy’s new premises 117 Trent Boulevard (left hand side of Pierrepont Deli) at 7.00pm from November 23rd and is geared at men and women looking to improve their health and fitness; each session is £3.00.  Cathy is keen to point out that you do not need any previous experience of running “The new beginners’ running group is for absolutely ANYONE who is interested in learning to run, it doesn’t matter if you have never even ran for a minute -  we have a week by week structured programme to help you reach your goals”.

    Cathy has coached numerous complete beginner runners through to running their first 5 km, often going on to 10 km and further. Her new beginners' group will provide participants with everything they need to know to achieve their goals.  Each week there will be a training run plus information on nutrition, stretching, shoes, safety, cross training, what to eat, what to wear, avoiding injury, events and much more.  Each session will also include strengthening and stabilising exercises as well as other forms or cardio exercise and group members will take home handouts on specific subjects as well as a training programme to complete between sessions.  Once the group is established Cathy is hoping to work in conjunction with Holme Pierrepont Running Club to integrate these new runners into a traditional club setting.  Cathy commented “Our aim is to get people to a standard where some may want to progress to a club environment where they can compete, Holme Pierrepont offers that opportunity – it’s my job to help these new runners take their first step in running for fitness”.

    Notts County Activator for Run in England said: “Cathy is so totally committed to this new scheme and is passionate about sharing her knowledge and enjoyment of running, she is a highly respected and highly qualified personal trainer who has years of experience in coaching beginners”
