Weekly Running Nights Just for Women!
Nike has introduced runs exclusively for women as a permanent
feature thanks to the highly successful running nights that accompanied the
'Jumpstart UK' women's training programme.
Now a weekly occurrence,
these nights offer women the opportunity to exercise safely around the parks and
streets of Central London in a relaxed and social environment. They provide
women with a chance to get fit but are also aimed at those in training for
various forthcoming running events. At every running night experts are on hand
to warm up and cool down participants and offer any training or technical advice
as to the right footwear or apparel to wear as well as to lead them through
London around the different runs.
Starting from Nike Town, Oxford
Circus, the runs will cover distances of either 3 miles or 4 miles. They
commence at 6pm and last until 7.30pm every Monday evening. A Nike Spokesperson
commented: 'Running is one of the best forms of exercise but it is often
overlooked by women who don't believe their fitness levels are at a high enough
level to take part. Getting fit doesn't just have to be about the gym, there are
many different options women can try. The running nights are great because you
can start with a relatively short run and gradually build up stamina and fitness
over time, as well as enjoying the company and environment you are running in.'
