About
Us:
Our
club was originally founded in 1994 as the Motionware
Running
Club by
volunteers Jane
Armstrong, Nancy
Morrison, Dave Pedley and Joe DuVall. In March 2008, after 25
years of business the Motionware Store closed its doors. When we
learned that our store was closing we began searching for a new home
and SportChek Kanata welcomed us aboard. And so, starting in
April 2008 the SportChek Kanata
Running Club was born. Now, in February 2010 the club has
opted to move locations again. We are now running from the
Sports4 in Kanata Centrum.
So we are now the Sports4 Kanata
Running Club.
The
club is volunteer run and entirely free. Over the years the
volunteer
leaders have changed and now our location has changed, but the club
spirit remains the same -
encouraging and enthusiastic.
Our weekly runs are guided by
several Kanata residents who have many years experience in road running
and multi-sport endurance events. Runners of any ability are
welcome, from beginners to competitive runners of various paces and
distances. The participants run with fellow runners
of their own ability level.
All runs start and finish at the Sports4 store.
Aim:
- To provide
a supportive environment for runners to train and to assist
participants,
of any level, to enhance their running ability through improved
training
techniques and group workouts.
Benefits:
- A consistent
program with knowledgeable people to guide you
- Regular,
group oriented approach to training
- Supportive
atmosphere
- Geared to
male or female runners, regardless of fitness level, age or
ability
- IT'S FREE!!!!
