Bringing Running Excellence to All Communities Canberra Running Coach, November 25, 2024November 25, 2024 At FAST Running, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to discover their passion for running, no matter where they live. That’s why our FAST Kids program extends its reach beyond Canberra’s urban centers to include weekly sessions in suburbs like Kaleen and nearby rural communities such as Gundaroo. These sessions are designed to inspire young athletes to explore the joy of running while developing key skills in speed, agility, and endurance. For families in Gundaroo, this is a chance to connect with the wider running community without needing to travel far. Our programs emphasize inclusivity and accessibility, offering structured, professional coaching in a supportive environment. FAST Kids isn’t just about running laps; it’s about building confidence, resilience, and friendships that last a lifetime. Canberra Sprint and Running Coach Steve Dodt, a passionate advocate for athletics as a life skill, shares, “By bringing running programs to diverse communities, we’re not just coaching kids—we’re creating opportunities and fostering a love for sport that knows no boundaries.” As a Life Member of Ginninderra Athletics, Steve ensures every session reflects our commitment to community engagement and excellence. These weekly sessions are tailored to teach essential running techniques, but they’re also filled with fun and teamwork. FAST Kids gives children in rural and suburban areas the same access to top-tier coaching, ensuring that no child is left behind in their journey to running success. Join the Movement If you’re a parent looking for a nurturing and dynamic program for your child, FAST Kids is ready to welcome you. Whether you’re in Kaleen, Gundaroo, or beyond, we’re here to help your child take their first steps toward running excellence. For more information on session times and locations, contact us today.
