Yes – we’re doing it again! Start 2024 by joining us for a gentle, safe, and fun training program.
The Oceanside Running Club Association is pleased to again offer a winter/spring Learn to Run
Program for adults 19 years or older who want to learn or re-learn healthy running skills at a
personalized pace in a friendly and supportive environment. Build your endurance and find your stride,
gradually increasing to 30-45 minutes of running continuously over the course of 15 weeks. We meet
in all kinds of weather (exception- ice/snow on sidewalks) so appropriate dress is recommended.
Level: Beginners, former runners, and runners returning from injury.
Cost: $45.00 includes a 2024 ORCA membership, wrap-up social event, and entry (non-transferable) to the
5K portion of the Oceanside Mother’s Day 10 Run and 5K Run/Walk on May 12, 2024.
Dates: Thursday evenings from February 01, 2024, 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm (approximately) at various
Parksville/Qualicum Beach locations, announced before each Thursday session. For the first 6
sessions we will meet at the Parksville Community Centre/ Boys and Girls Club, 132 Jensen Ave
EAST, Parksville.
