Foundations of Running

Foundations build lifelong runners:

01. Sounding out what’s important.

It’s hard to tune in to what matters when there’s so much noise around running. We’re stripping away the fluff to focus on the variables that are actually important: form, strength, and nutrition.

02. Realistic Ideals. Professional Logic.

Most runners (from 3km to 300km) face the same foundational hurdles with injury and fueling. This isn't just for the elites; it's for anyone who wants the blueprints to stay on the road, trail, or track. Whether you are training for your first 5km, returning from injury, or a seasoned marathoner, every runner deserves to know the foundations.

How the morning will run:

We meet at Niccolo Coffee at 9:00 AM for a briefing before heading to the Olympic Park Athletics Track. The session is designed as a modular experience, moving from physical movement to technical theory.

• 01 Greet: intro, and the structure of the morning.

• 02 Work: Warm-up and a light, conversational jog to the track (6–7 min/km).

• 03 Form & Structure: A hands-on workshop with Shai ([RE]RUN Physiotherapy) on mechanical efficiency and tissue tolerance.

• 04 Return: Jog or walk back to base at Niccolo and enjoy some coffee and snacks.

• 05 Logic: A dive into how to design a running plan that sticks

• 06 Fuel: Nutrition and recovery fundamentals with Gabrielle (We Are Runners Nutrition).

• 07 Dialogue: Open Q&A - access to both a Physio and Dietitian for your specific hurdles.
