ZAKOPANE BIEGA . pl

Running Thursdays are a joint initiative of three enthusiasts Barbara, Monika and Dawid representing two local companies dealing with sport, tourism and recreation:

• Altius Tourist Office - specialising in organisation of incentives, as well as catering for individuals and groups staying in our region
• Sport Time - organising sport activities (swimming) for children and skiing instruction in the country and abroad

We all share a sportive past, studies at the Academy of Physical Education and running that has become a hobby of ours. With our Running Thursdays we would like to encourage larger numbers of people to run systematically.

• The main objective of Running Thursdays is promotion of physical activity among inhabitants of Zakopane as well as tourists visiting our region.
• Everyone can become a participant of Running Thursdays, as long as he/she is over 12 years old and in a physical shape good enough to withstand extensive exercise.
• We meet every Thursday at 18.00 in the Sports Centre (known as COS) stadium in Bronka Czecha street (by the entrance to the main building).
• We divide all the participants into two or three groups, where one is always meant for the beginners. Within this group, activities are in form of fast marching.
• Participation in Running Thursdays is free of charge.
• All participants are attending the classes at their own risk. We do not guarantee first aid services, nor food or drinks.
• We do not run on the athletics stadium, we use walking paths in the woods (mainly asphalt ones).
