230 at Couch-to-5K Return
In other club news: There is huge enthusiasm again for the autumn Couch-To-5K programme as some 230 participants turned up on its first night back last week.
The series, which does as it says, gets people from their couches and gently and gradually gets them into a frame of mind with fitness at its core. And there are lots of like-minded people for company.
The 12 week series will culminate in a five kilometre run/jog/walk and a bit of a knees-up afterwards. Couch-to-5K will continue each Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 7pm at just €2 per person per night.
