FAST Running at the University of Canberra Canberra Sprint Coach, November 25, 2024November 25, 2024 Building Partnerships Last Saturday, FAST Running took a significant step forward in our mission to inspire active lifestyles and promote running excellence. Our squad trained at the University of Canberra (UC), marking the beginning of an exciting partnership aimed at fostering connections between university students and the athletic community. This collaboration underscores our commitment to providing accessible opportunities for people of all ages to get active and improve their performance. By bringing FAST Running sessions to UC, we aim to engage university students in a fun and supportive environment, encouraging them to take a break from their studies, lace up their runners, and join us on the track. Canberra Sprint Coach Steve Dodt expressed his enthusiasm for this initiative, saying, “University life can be demanding, but it’s also a perfect time to build habits that support physical and mental well-being. We’re excited to see more students embrace the joy of running and join the FAST Running family.” UC’s facilities offer a fantastic setting for athletes of all levels to train, and this partnership aligns perfectly with our vision to make athletics a cornerstone of healthy living for everyone. Whether students are looking to sprint faster, boost their fitness, or simply have fun, FAST Running provides tailored coaching to meet their goals. Join the UC Movement If you’re a university student looking to stay active, improve your speed, or train with a dynamic community, FAST Running is here for you. Our sessions are open to all, and we welcome new members ready to experience the thrill of running. Stay tuned for updates on future training events at UC, and be part of this exciting collaboration. Together, let’s build a healthier, more active university community. For more information, please contact us.
