Supervised running training and the added value of the group

Supervised training in running is a key element of sporting success, and group practice under the guidance of an experienced coach adds an extra dimension, crucial for runners of all levels. This article explores the benefits of this type of training, focusing on the new weekly groups launched by Léman Running Club.

Why choose supervised training?

The support of a qualified coach is invaluable. It offers technical advice, a training structure, and helps prevent injuries. What’s more, the trainer tailors the sessions to individual needs, helping each runner to achieve their personal goals, whether that’s finishing a 10 km or aiming for a marathon.

Group strength

Running in a group offers unique emulation. This dynamic creates a motivating environment where riders can share their experiences, challenges and successes. Mutual support and encouragement help members excel and stay committed to their training.

Léman Running Club groups

In January 2024, Léman Running Club launches three weekly groups in Nyon, Geneva and Morges. Each group, led by qualified coaches, is tailored to intermediate and advanced runners, with a focus on improving performance.

  1. Léman Running Club Geneva – Coached by Antoine Bezault, sessions take place at the Stade du Bout du Monde every Thursday. The program includes VMA tests for optimal training personalization.
  2. Léman Running Club Morges – Under the direction of Alan Vellati, meetings are held every Wednesday at the Morges swimming pool. The group aims to improve stride and muscular endurance.
  3. Léman Running Club Nyon – Jasper McDowell will lead this group every Tuesday at the Stade de Colovray, focusing on varied sessions to develop physiological qualities.
