About the event

Join the Couch Potato Run Club for an empowering journey from couch potato to runner on January 18, 2027. This beginner-friendly program offers guided training sessions at Umhlanga Lighthouse every Monday and Wednesday from 6:00 PM to 6:45 PM. Over eight weeks, you'll progress gradually with short running intervals of one or two minutes, interspersed with walk breaks designed to ease beginners into a comfortable routine without overwhelming them. The program focuses on building confidence rather than pushing limits too quickly, ensuring that no runner feels left behind. Whether you're looking for motivation to get fit or simply want an excuse to leave the house and connect with others who share your goals, this supportive community will welcome you with open arms. Bring your dog along as well; it's a pet-friendly environment where everyone is encouraged to move at their own pace without fear of judgment. For more details and to sign up, visit Couch Potato Run Club.
