Cork Couch to 5km programmes launched at 10 different locations
The perfect way to get fit at your own pace.
Cork Kerry Community Healthcare, in partnership with Cork Sports Partnership, is launching local Couch to 5km programmes to help with improving public health. A €50 fee will cover eight weeks’ worth of sessions with a qualified athletics tutor.
The programme says that it will cater for people that are new or beginners to jogging or running, and is also open to those that are currently walking but perhaps would like to build up to jogging/running.
Anyone interested can take part in sessions at 10 different locations across Cork, including: Bishopstown, Turners Cross, Blarney, Mayfield, Ballincollig, Skibbereen, Kinsale, Carrigaline, Ballingeary and Whitechurch. For more specific details, check the ticketing page here.

Participants will also receive workshops/extra sessions where possible during the weeks on various topics (gear, warming up/cooling down etc) that will encourage and motivate them on their journey towards completing perhaps their first 5km jog/run.
