Lead a local running class
Fitness experts have designed a 45-minute workout class to help people of any ability get the most out of running. Now we need people like you to set up and lead local weekly classes - to raise money to help save lives.
Were you Born to Lead?
We aim to launch a weekly Born to Run class in every village, town and community across the UK. Why not take the lead in your local area? Start a class of your own.
We’re looking for energy and commitment. If you don't have previous coaching experience, we'll subsidise your one-day Leadership in Running Fitness or Jog Leader course to help you get moving.

The class
Born to Run classes are a fitness revolution, the first group workout focusing solely on the scientifically documented benefits of running.
With a unique programme of running-specific exercises compiled by fitness expert Peta Bee, the classes are designed to change people's perspective on what it means to run and to revel in the changes it brings to body and mind.
You'll relish the challenge, and raise vital funds to help save children's lives.
Where, when and who?
Choose your own unique running venue – could be your local park, riverside or beach. Invite your friends, neighbours and colleagues to join in and reap the rewards.
A class is suitable for people of all ages and all abilities – from the total beginner to the experienced runner who just wants to add some variety to their weekly training regime.
Born to Run classes will be delivered in partnership with Run in England, jogscotland and the Women's Running Network.
