This is for you if…
You do not need to see yourself as “a runner” yet.
- You haven’t run in years - or ever
- You feel nervous about joining a group
- You worry you’ll be the slowest
- You want a proper structure instead of guessing
- You want support from a coach and from other beginners
You do not need to feel ready. You just need to start.
How beginners actually start running
You will not be expected to turn up and run non-stop.
Zero to 45 is designed to help you build gradually, with a clear structure and support throughout.
Week 1 - short, manageable run-walk intervals
Week 12 - 45 minutes continuous running
Every session is designed to build your confidence and fitness step by step, so you are not left trying to figure it out on your own.
- Structured progression
- Coached sessions twice per week
- Breathing, pacing and mindset support
- Supportive group environment
Real People. Real Results.
Most people who join Zero to 45 do not start with confidence. They start with doubt - and build from there.

"I joined the Beginner’s Running Group because I wanted to become fitter and healthier. In just 12 weeks I am proud to call myself a runner."
Sofie B
"The beginners group was great from start to finish! Gradual introduction back into running, with strength training included, fab warm ups and stretches afterwards."
Rebecca J
“Before I joined, I didn’t do any running at all and I struggled with the thought of not being good enough. Honestly, it’s been a game changer for me. I love it.”
Meet your coach - Barrie Evans
I coach beginners in a supportive, non-judgemental way that helps them build confidence as well as fitness.
Most people who join Zero to 45 do not see themselves as runners when they start. My job is to help them realise they can do more than they thought - with the right structure, the right pace and the right support.
