OUR PROGRAM

Looking for a way to introduce a love of exercise and promote wellbeing in your child's everyday routine?

Our programs are designed to develop all levels of runner from young beginners who want to exercise in the park, to experienced competitors keen to boost race performance.

We specialise in technique , agility, coordination, race preparation and race day performance through programs that focus on the important areas of warm-up/cool-down, dynamic and static stretching, drills to enhance running form and speed development.

From Cross Country racing to track athletics we can tailor training programs for all distances from 100 to 8,000 metre school and club events.​

We have a Track specific session on Wednesday Evenings at ES Marks Athletics Fields in Kensington from 5.15pm. These sessions are perfect for athletes racing in Little Athletics or Club and School Championships in all distances from 100 to 5,000m.

★ Strength Training

Our program includes strength training to improve core strength, enhance running form and prevent injury. Each session includes warmup and cool down phases with dynamic and static stretching exercises.

★ Private Sessions

Looking for that special edge or maybe just improve your running technique?

Our private running sessions give you specialised coaching relevant to your specific goals and targets.

★ Transition from Junior to Senior Athlete

At Up And Running we understand the demands on the young athlete and the heavy schedule of study and school sport. Our Juniors have the ability to join our Senior group THE RUN SQUAD for morning sessions with experienced, elite adult athletes and mentors.
