AN enthusiastic bunch of new runners turned up in the Brandon Car Park on Monday evening to start a journey which will see them run a 5k in two months time.

The Born To Run Marathon Club started its Couch To 5k Programme which will run for the next nine weeks and over 40 people signed up to challenge themselves.

The programme is a great way to get or stay active as the autumn evenings are upon us, while the social aspect can’t be under understated.

There were plenty seasoned Born To Run Club members there to help the newcomers who are in for a fun time over the coming weeks. Scroll down for photos…
