Rye Runners have organised a ten-week course aimed at adult runners of all abilities, including those who can barely remember the last time they ran for a bus.
The initiative is supported by Active Rother - a Rother District Council-led partnership aimed at encouraging people to get active – and is part of Getting Rother Active, a three-year project launched after the council successfully applied for £120,000 funding from Sport England.

Dave Warren has become a regular runner after taking part in the course. He said: “I would totally recommend the beginners’ course to anyone.
“It builds your fitness up bit by bit, in a way you don’t notice. Six months on, I’m running three times a week.”
Anyone interested in booking one of the 25 places available will need to pay a £10 registration fee. The course itself is free of charge.
