Under the guidance of qualified and certified coaches, participants learn the fundamentals of running. Training sessions take place at and around the beautiful, traffic-free Sportzone on Eggerweg, between Sittard and Geleen.

There, they have access to a high-quality athletics track, a variety of training equipment,

as well as changing rooms, showers, and a spacious clubhouse. From the athletics track, they head out into the surrounding Hof van Limburg countryside, which borders the Sportzone. If the weather is unfavourable, they can make use of the indoor athletics facility.

Please note: you are responsible for paying these costs yourself, not your employer.

Starting running ss about more than just running

For many years, AV Unitas has been providing training for beginner runners. They have found that participating in 5 km running events or joining a local running group is a wonderful goal for many people. Naturally, they are committed to helping beginners achieve that goal.

The course concludes with a guided endurance run alongside other runners from AV Unitas. For the sake of clarity, participation in this run is entirely optional. AV Unitas focuses on the individual, their abilities, and their personal goals. After all, sport should provide an escape from the stress and pressure to perform that many experience in everyday life.

To ensure participants train safely and responsibly, they provide a proper warm-up, running drills, and guidance on running technique. In addition, they offer supplementary fitness training and place great importance on the social aspect of exercising together.

10-week programme

S2R with Unitas is all about improving fitness and running technique together with other beginner runners. The programme runs for 10 weeks and places the individual participant at its centre. They also pay close attention to preventing and managing injuries that beginner runners may encounter.

The goal is to be able to run 5 km comfortably by the end of the course. This is achieved through group training sessions on Saturday mornings, combined with a training schedule for the rest of the week. The Saturday group sessions last approximately 1.5 hours.
