Osaka Nagai | Running Practice Session for Beginners Aiming to Finish a Full Marathon (大阪・長居｜初心者からのフルマラソン完走ランニング練習会)
About the Event
Held at Nagai Park in Osaka, this practice session is for runners who can handle 5 km or 10 km but are unsure how to train for a full marathon. It is not about speed. A UESCA-certified running coach, Hiroshi Ando, teaches form and training methods, and each session has a different theme such as stretching, strength work or rhythm training. A typical 90-minute session runs through introductions, a warm-up, stretching and strength work, running form practice and about 30 minutes of running. Most participants are in their 40s or older, about 70 percent are in their 50s and about half are women, and many come alone. Sessions are listed for four Wednesdays: November 4, 11, 18 and 25.
