1 It’s good value
lots of comparisons to cost of a gym membership, trip to the cinema, night out etc
financial value - money off races (£2/race), summer league & XC (£3.80/race) and discount in running shops
should there be a membership card?
2 The club is supportive and inclusive
a supportive environment helps mental health and very sociable
here is something for everybody regardless of age and ability
opportunity to make new friends
3 Importance of coaching and groups sessions
There is training most days of the week, races throughout the year, socials, beginners programmes & special one-off training events & more ...
The Beginners’ programme plus all the other activities that the Eagles offer.
Free training plans and advice
