Register for Couch to 5K.

We need to be sure you’re able to take part in the programme safely and so we need you to register via our online registration system. This will gather the details we need and will register you for Couch to 5K.

Our Couch to 5K programme costs just £25.00 for the full session. By registering for the programme, you are agreeing to pay the registration fee. We use PayPal to collect registration fees and you MUST do this after completing your details. You can either use your PayPal account or, if you don’t have one, just use your normal debit or credit card.

If you’re in receipt of a means-tested state benefit, we can offer you a discounted rate of £18.00. To get this discount, contact us BEFORE you register by emailing us at getfit@getfitfalkland.org.uk, letting us know you’re on a qualifying benefit. We’ll take it from there. We are able to offer this discount thanks to funding from Scotch Whisky Investments

If you change your mind within 7 days of the date of your registration, we will refund your registration fee less a £5 administration fee. We have to commit to preparing for your participation in the activity. For that reason, you must cancel not later than 7 days before the date of the first group session, even if that date is less than 7 days from the date of your registration. We regret that after 7 days before the first group session, your registration fee is non-refundable.

IMPORTANT:

The Couch to 5k programme is suitable for almost everyone, irrespective of their history. However, there is a basic requirement that you can walk briskly for at least 30 minutes without pain. If you can’t do that, it would be unwise to undertake the programme.

There are some medical conditions that might suggest you shoudn’t do Couch to 5K. We can’t advise you on medical matters but, if you have a medical condition, our "health check" page provides links to the "NHS Options" web site where you can get more information.

If you can walk pain-free and don’t have an existing condition that could stop your participation, then you’re probably fit enough to handle the programme. So let’s get you registered - it shouldn’t take more than five minutes
