Fingal Couch to 3K – Walk to Jog Programme

Fingal County Council Sports Office is delighted to launch the Fingal Couch to 3K – Walk to Jog programme.

As part of Fingal County Council's sports strategy to get more people active, the Sports Office is offering people the opportunity to take part in this free 6-week virtual programme starting on February 22.

Whether you have never jogged before or if you just want to get more active, Couch to 3K is an easy way of getting more energy and feeling healthier. This programme is aimed at beginners who would like to get from walking to jogging but might be a little unsure of how to get started.

The Mayor of Fingal County, Cllr David Healy said: “It’s very important to give people as many options as possible to participate in physical activity especially while sport and exercise facilities are closed. This is another fantastic online programme facilitated by Fingal County Council Sports Office. This programme will help people improve their fitness and as we’ve all learned during the COVID-19 pandemic contributes greatly to positive mental health.”

Margaret Geraghty, Director of Housing and Community Development for Fingal County Council said: “Another excellent virtual programme on offer from our Sports Office. In a time when being active could not be more important this Couch to 3K programme will give people the support they need to get up, get out and get active.”
