Breakfast Training Runs


Sporting Futures Breakfast Runs


The Sporting Futures Breakfast Runs were first introduced for the 2008 Derby 10k, A total of three breakfast runs were launched in the February and due to their success further runs were added previous to the 2008 race and then subsequently a busier calendar added for the 2009 race in April.  In response to  runners suggestion we are now launching a monthly breakfast run calendar which begins in June 2009.

The aims of the Sporting Futures breakfast runs are to encourage people of all abilities to improve their fitness and in preparation for the Derby 10k race.  

The breakfast runs provide people with the opportunity to meet others with similar fitness levels, gain professional advice from athletes and coaches, and to generally make training fun.  

The breakfast runs start and finish at Darley Barn Outdoor Centre where changing facilities and showers are available and Sporting Futures also provide a continental breakfast and drinks for after the run. There is a small fee of £2 per run to cover costs.  

It is recommended that every participant remembers to bring warm clothing for the training runs to avoid injury and illness, and dry clothing for after the training runs.

Each person who registers for the breakfast runs will be sent an information document including directions along with the maps for chosen training runs.

The time it takes to complete a training run is not important!
