Beginners Lead
Beginners courses are hugely rewarding and great fun. They are also resource-hungry, diverting Run Leaders, Coaches, Admins and Scheduling resource away from regular club activities – but we wouldn’t be without them! The Beginners Lead(s) coordinate a lovely bunch of people to make each course amazing.
Currently: Chris & Alison
Contact: beginners@lymmrunners.org.uk
Role Involves:
- Coordinate the beginners Course(s):
- Planning, marketing, website content, liaison with PR & Active Cheshire / Run England;
- Course admin (scheduling, course email enquiries, course bookings/joining instructions, registers & attendance data);
- Lead run sessions on a Tuesday and/or Thursday, liaise with support runners & other run leaders to ensure adequate cover
- Weekly newsletter to participants
- Encourage participation at Parkrun & HL10K
- Organise completion certificates / awards ceremony
- Champion the needs of ‘beginners’ or ‘returners’ in club meetings and discussions.
Note: Historically, Lymm Runners offers one Beginners Course each year. It starts early in January and ends with the High Legh 10K event in March.
