Running in Vondelpark (+ Speed Play Session)

Eye Film Instituut (map)

Selected By: Laurie

Another social running session that's open to all ladies, plus I'll be adding Fartlek (means "speed play" in Swedish), which is a great workout that's easy for all levels and lots of fun

We'll start at 7 pmArrive a bit early for chatting and introductions.

More on Fartlek here.

So, if you're fast, slow, just starting out, getting back into it, a long-time runner; it doesn't matter. Come and join us! We will adjust what we do accordingly.  For Fartlek, I'll pick a small section of the park where we can run, but you're also welcome to do you're own thing (lap the whole park, jog/walk, etc.)  The important thing is that we're out supporting each other.

I'm also happy to lead a group stretching session afterward.  We can also follow that with a drink at a nearby cafe.

For future running sessions, I suggest we try out different parks and neighborhoods and do a bit of exploring while we run--and then stop for a post-run drink or snack.  Where do you like to run or where what area would you like to explore? I'd greatly appreciate your ideas!

    Hi Ladies, How are you doing since the run? I had a bit of soreness, so I imagine you did too. That's normal though. I encourage you to try it again on your own before the next meeting. Happy running!
