Keep on running and get fit with experience­d leaders

-

Active Stirling has joined forces with NHS Forth Valley and Jog Scotland to launch a running group for people looking to improve their health and fitness.

The Stirling Striders had their first run on Monday, starting out from Stirling Community Hospital’s outpatient­s entrance.

The group is ideal for total beginners and intermedia­te runners and will meet every Monday, setting off for a run at 5.30pm, supported by experience­d and friendly Jog Scotland leaders. Sessions are open to everyone and completely free to attend.

Christina Feaks, Active Stirling’s physical activity inclusion officer said “New Year is a great time to start new things and make positive changes in your life. We wanted to offer a free activity in the community to help people kick start their New Year, by getting out, meeting people and getting fit together in a relaxed, friendly environmen­t.”

The Jog Scotland leader at Stirling Community Hospital is Tracy McCormack. More informatio­n by emailing stirlingst­riders@outlook.com or log on to www.jogscotlan­d.org.uk or Facebook.
