Recently Partridge Peartree produced screen printed t shirts for a local running club for a ‘Couch to 5K’ event. Many of which were celebrating on completing their first 5K. We were happy to support them and feel proud to have played a small part in their success!

The Fun Run was held in Roe Valley Country Park on Sunday 25th November.

68 runners took part after finishing the ‘Couch to 5K’ challenge hosted by Northern Velocity & Causeway Coast and Glens’ Borough Council.

The run marked a hugely successful end to the initiative which saw participants cross the finish line after an 11-week training programme.

It was a fantastic event which was very well supported by the runners, their families and the wider community.

The Fun Run had a total of 175 entrees on the day from first time event runners to elite runners, all supporting each other to complete their personal goals.

The ‘Couch to 5K’ programme is open to anyone and is aimed at complete beginners with expert coaching on hand to guide participants through to the end goal of completing a 5K run.

The next ‘Couch to 5K’ programme is due to begin in February 2019
