OKEHAMPTON Running Club is looking to recruit people freshly enthusiastic about sport after the Olympics and Paralympics with a new complete beginners' group.

In mid October, the group will start a new group for people who have never tried or done very little running before. The group is designed to remove the intimidation of taking up a new sport by surrounding people with those of a similar ability.

The group will increase the level of running gradually, with no pressure on new runners to reach targets or keep up with others.
