Latest Couch 2 5K draws big crowd

Our latest Couch to 5k programme opened on Tuesday with a great turnout - 27 out of the 37 who had registered for the 8-week course. And almost half of them turned up for the second session on Thursday at Bushy Park Sports Club, which doesn't always happen due to the distance between the two locations.

Having started with a 15-minute work out the group will progress to 21 minutes next week and the aim is to get them to 'graduate' at Bushy parkrun on June 21. This is the fourth year the club has run the programme.
