Get Running:
performance is nice, fun is a must
Get Running is a small-scale running and walking club with approximately 60 members. We're a friendly running group, but also a professional club with certified trainers affiliated with the Athletics Union. Training sessions are held twice a week in a beautiful, green setting. Both beginners and experienced runners and walkers are welcome, year-round. Get Running also regularly organizes special courses for beginners.
The club
Running
Get Running has two groups for running (and one for walking). The first running group (Doorzetters - Perseverers) runs distances of 5 to 10 km and trains for longer, better, or faster runs. The (very) advanced (Bikkels - Tough Guys) run distances from 10 km to a half or full marathon. Both groups train twice a week at the same time under the guidance of certified coaches.
Walking
Want to get moving by enjoying a walk with others? We offer that option. Or perhaps you'd like to train for a brisk walk in preparation for the Kennedy March or the 4 Days Marches (Walk of the World)? That's possible too. The walkers (Pioneers) are accompanied by an experienced guide and cover a variety of routes, interspersed with exercises to improve your walking technique and experience.
Events and trails
We regularly organize endurance runs in the Eindhoven area. Get Running members also participate collectively in walking and running events and races, recreational runs and trail runs. These events take place in the region, elsewhere in the Netherlands, and abroad. The club also has an active trail running group.
Green environment
Get Running's home base is Wasven, a green oasis in the Tongelre district near the Karpendonkse Plas lake, the Eckartse Bos forest, and the Dommel and Kleine Dommel valleys. It's a beautiful area for running and walking.
Trial training
You are welcome to join one or two free trial training sessions to experience what such a training session is like and to get a feel for the atmosphere at our club.
