The Women's Running Network launched in Bude

recently and is already enjoying almost full capacity on the Thursday evening session. Group leader, Lara Trewin, said: "I am thrilled with the response we have received on our launch in Bude. Our first evening saw support from Charlotte Lawson, County Activator for Run in England, who ran with the group for their first session. Our second session was on Firework Night, with high winds and

inclement weather and the ladies returned for more!" Due to the demand already received, the club is introducing an improvers session as well as continuing the beginners 10-week programme in

January 2010. Another group leader will also be joining Lara in the new year, which is very

encouraging as they have only just completed their second session! The WRN caters for women of all running abilities including the complete beginner, giving sensible advice, support and company. The Bude group meet at Curves Gym, Harlequinns Leisure at 6.30pm every Thursday. Anyone
