Saturday parkrun Sessions
Parkrun is a brilliant initiative and here at UP Coaching we love this concept. Athletes regularly attend parkrun for a tempo or time trial session which includes a thorough warm up, tempo paced 5km and cool down. Some athletes will run extra distances at tempo pace after the parkrun, for example, those training for marathons and longer.
Parkruns are a great way to practise racing too! It gives you the opportunity in a relaxed, supportive environment to practise your racing and hone your pre and post race routines.
UP Coaching athletes regularly attend East Richmond parkrun and The Ponds parkrun, Coaches are regularly in attendance to help and support athletes.
All parkrun sessions start at 7:40, with the 5km parkrun starting at 8am
There is no charge for the Saturday parkrun sessions. Please add UP Coaching as your ‘Club’ during the registration process.
- UP Coaching Premium Local Athletes: Included in coaching package
- UP Coaching Premium Distant Athletes: $5 per session
- Casual Athletes: $10 per session
Casual Athletes may purchase a monthly pass for $0, which entitles you to attend all weekly sessions. This is payable at the start of each new calendar month, at the first session you attend and is only valid for sessions within that calendar month.
There is no charge for the Saturday parkrun sessions as this is a Free Global Health Initiative.
