MACSFIT BEGINNERS RUNNING CLUB

Friday, March 15th, 2013

MACSFIT are pleased to announce our BEGINNERS running club to start in January 2013.
We are a Chorley based fitness company promoting weight loss and weight gain instruction by means of body weight exercises.
We are offering Beginner running classes due to the vast number of people who have enquired through our club, wanting a beginner no experience required running club, that will slowly promote the health aspects at a time and place that suits them and at a cost that is affordable.
We will be setting up locations in Chorley, Euxton, Coppull and Buckshaw to start, and develop new locations throughout the year.
We feel that if people don’t want to get fir with our body weight exercises, but do like the idea of walking/jogging and running then we feel we can offer any novice the starting steps to possibly progress onto a more advanced running provider in the future.
