– We already have a regular group of runners who come to training regardless of the weather, which makes us extremely happy. We have divided the participants into two groups so that the sessions can be enjoyed both by those who want to begin their running journey or simply exercise outdoors, and by those who want to prepare for a specific race. We are particularly pleased to see families with children. Our training sessions are an opportunity to spend free time together as a family in a friendly atmosphere – says coach Bartosz Gruman.
The organizers also invite older people. – We adjust the difficulty of the exercises to the age and experience level of those taking part, so there is no need to worry: everyone will find something suitable – adds coach Dariusz Łomański.
Participants in the BiegamBoLubię initiative took part in a race organized as part of Szpikolada [więcej informacji na ten temat w poniedziałek – przyp. ii]. – Four of our athletes took part in the race, supporting the worthy cause of recruiting bone marrow donors. It is worth emphasizing that one hour earlier they had participated in a BiegamBoLubię session at the stadium, which did not stop them from supporting Szpikolada – notes coach Bartosz Gruman.
On the last Saturday of April (April 26), the organizers invite everyone interested to take part in a race called “BiegamBoLubię Tysiączka”. – At all stadiums where BiegamBoLubię sessions are held, a 1,000 m race is being organized. Anyone can complete a distance of 1 km, so this will be an opportunity to test oneself. We invite both older people and the youngest participants – say the organizers. – If little ones come, we will organize a special one-lap race for them (400 m). Each participant will receive a commemorative certificate bearing the name of the BiegamBo Lubię initiative. We plan to organize a similar race in November, when we will be able to assess our progress. Everyone is welcome.
Attention! There will be no BiegamBoLubię session on Holy Saturday. In accordance with the organizers’ earlier arrangements, BBL Initiative sessions are canceled on Holy Saturday. – Of course, there is nothing to stop anyone from coming to the stadium and exercising a little in a group. It is worth taking an hour’s break from household chores, getting some fresh air and burning a few calories. Since Bartek and I will be at a sports training camp with young athletes from MKS Bolesłavia at that time, we will not be present at the session. For this reason, the Thursday training session (April 17) has exceptionally been moved to Wednesday (April 16) – says coach Dariusz Łomański.
