I am, I can: The Run Club for Non-Runners- A 26-Week Learn-To-Run Course

I Am, I Can is a run club for women who say “I’m not a runner.”

If you’ve ever thought “I can’t run,” “running isn’t for people like me,” or “I’m not the right body shape or size to run,” then this club was created for you.

This isn’t about pace, competition, or looking a certain way. We’re not focused on running — we’re focused on women. Women who want to move their bodies, get fitter and stronger, feel good in themselves, and spend time around like-minded people who are ready to try something new and take control of their wellbeing.

Whether you’re completely new to exercise, returning after a long break, or you’ve never felt comfortable in traditional fitness spaces, you belong here.

I Am, I Can is about building confidence step by step. We start at walking pace, supporting women to move comfortably and consistently, and gradually build from walking to jogging, and eventually running. Over 26 weeks, we’ll guide and support you to progress safely and confidently, working towards running up to 8km without stopping.

No pressure.
No judgement.
No “runner’s body” required.

The club is led by Reyss and Kemi, two local women from the area who know exactly what it feels like to start from zero. They both began as women who couldn’t run, and now they’re passionate about helping other women experience the confidence and empowerment that comes from doing something you once thought was impossible.

Their mission is simple: support women to believe “I am, I can.”

Together we’ll build fitness, strength, confidence, and community — one step at a time.
