Fun Runners are ready to help you off the sofa

If you're looking to get fit and running in 2016, look no further than Leighton Fun Runners' Couch to 5k initiative.

The new course, which starts tonight (Monday), is open to runners of all shapes and abilities, with the motive of getting people to get active in the New Year.

The course runs for nine weeks, with regular members of the club also joining in to help support new recruits and give them advice and encouragement along the routes. If you’re interested in joining, visit www.leightonfunrunners.org.uk/join-us/couch-to-5k/
