CREDITON Running Network, the town’s “fun and friendly running club”, is offering a beginner's running course.

The 10-week program will be led by qualified run-leaders and would make an excellent New Year’s resolution.

It will start in Crediton Town Square at 6.25pm on Monday, January 26, and take place on Mondays thereafter.

The course costs £25 per person and places are limited.

In September, Crediton Running Network organised the annual Crediton Crunch 10-kilometre race.

As many as 158 runners took part in the multi-terrain run, which began and finished at Queen Elizabeth’s School’s Barnfield campus.

Many participants wore fancy dress in memory of Crediton Running Network member Hannah Bennett.

More than £3,000 was raised for charity, split equally between Hospiscare and children’s charity Go Beyond.
