Training
Coach for the Shepparton Runners Club is Chris Armstrong, who takes two sessions per week.
The Tuesday session is held at the Victoria Lake, Shepparton, near the Shepparton Art Museum building, or at the Botanic Gardens in Kialla, beginning at 5.45pm. This session goes for an hour. Chris plans and takes the group, either through a fartlek, a speed session or a tempo run.
Thursday sessions are more relaxed, with an out and back easy run as a group. This session starts at 5.45pm and finishes at 6.45pm from the Botanic Gardens in Kialla. The purpose of these sessions is to just turn the legs over, because many within the group regularly participate in Parkrun and we all need fresh legs for 8 o’clock on a Saturday morning!

Shepparton Runners Club Coach in action: Chris Armstrong
Chris has completed his Level 1 Recreational Run Leader course and possesses a lot of experience and knowledge in running. He is also coached by a highly regarded runner- Brady Threlfall. Chris’ affable nature is an asset to the club and we value his expertise highly.
A number of our members have also completed this same course, making for a club which has much expertise to draw from. This allows for smaller groups to be catered for and includes all levels of fitness and ability.
