Once a week at running club, we start with some warm up exercises, like burpees and do some stretches. We then go for a run, usually to Rouken Glen Park, where we run around the lake for as many times as our capabilities allow. We then run back to school and finish off with some sprint work and stretches. The most I’ve run around the park is six times and the furthest distance I've covered is 5 KM. I really enjoy running club; Miss Hawker and Miss Allan are really good trainers. I hope to improve my running skills and eventually join the school cross country team. I also enjoy competing in fun and family runs and this training really helps my stamina for those runs and the other sports that I play.

I love running club because we can run a long way (if we are able to) and the other runners in the group are really nice. The group is made up of girls and boys from the Junior school and although we all have different abilities we are able to join in every activity. It makes me feel really proud to be a part of this group running through the streets in our school sports uniform. It is great being able to run with the club and improve my fitness so that I can run longer distances such as 5 KM. I really like doing fun warm ups and cool downs at the beginning and end of the sessions.
