Couch to 5k

Are you interested in running/jogging for health and fitness, but don’t know how to start? Couch to 5km training is great for beginners or those returning to running. Make friends and have fun!

We offer two courses starting in January and September each year - for adults over 18. Everyone is supported to go at their own pace. Our course is led by trained volunteers and licensed Welsh Athletics Leaders in Running Fitness (LiRF). 

We get lots of good feedback!

I loved the course. All of the leaders were very encouraging and supportive, thank you all.  This is a fantastic opportunity for those who want to get fit, help with their mental health or meet new friends, please keep doing it.

Courses are held on MONDAYS and THURSDAYS 6.00 – 7.00pm for 10 weeks. They usually take place at Penlan Athletic track or another suitable location. We conclude with a celebration parkrun event. The course costs £20.00, which also provides social membership of Brecon AC.
