Sport Science Institute teaching people how to become runners

You’ve always wanted to become a runner – but keep putting it off because you don’t seem to be able to keep up the training or don’t even think it’s possible? Let us make it possible for you and help you every step of the way to becoming a 10km or even 21.1km runner. OptiFit, which runs in association with the Sports Science Institute of SA (SSISA), has a 12 weeks to 10km or an 8 weeks to 21.1km (for 10km runners), hands-on training programme. On the line is SSISA spokesperson Kathy Mcquaide Little to give us some insight into the research into the programme. 021 659 5725 for more information or follow them on twitter @sportsciene_sa or visit www.ssisa.org.za.
