    This clinic will meet at our Langley store at 6:00 pm every Wednesday night for 9 weeks from May 6 until Sunday July 5th. Cost is $60! Anyone with an interest in improving their fitness and learning more about the sport of fitness - walking, jogging and running in a fun and social atmosphere is qualified to join. We offer three distinct program-levels for everyone.

    The Learn-to-Run - 001 and 101 & Run Easy 201 programs offer a safe and gradual introduction to improved fitness and fun race-event preparation. The Run Easy club will achieve more ambitious, steady training runs. Each session features the ‘Walk-Jog-Run’ technical progression, until you’re finally running strong for 45 minutes+, 3-4 times per week... at a pace that will allow you to walk or run a 5k - 10k event with comfort and flare!!

    Some people want to relieve stress or lose weight on the way to improving their ability to run safely and better every week. Our program design is specifically developed to help you gain strength with a safe running technique.

    This is a great way to get in shape for the summer, and your entry fee includes entry to the Fort Langley 5 K race on July 5th, 2026!
