The club meets three days a week. On Tuesdays the Road Running group trains at the athletics track: a preparation and development group for road races, aimed at participants who run above beginner level and want to keep improving on the road, with a maximum of 10 people. Sessions include plyometrics, running drills, individually tailored intervals, speed and endurance work, race-time and pace-management exercises and training sets; depending on the session, around 5–8 km is covered. Participants wear the Road Runner T-shirt.
On Thursday evenings, also at the athletics track, there is a free running and exercise event. Open to runners of every level and to people about to start running, its main aim is to move together, make running enjoyable and support a sustainable active lifestyle; up to 30 people can take part. The session includes a warm-up run, dynamic exercises, running drills, resistance band work, core and breathing work, training sets, the main activity, a cool-down run and static exercises, with yoga from time to time. Around 5 km is covered, and participants wear the RunAktif T-shirt.
On Sunday mornings there is a Trail Running meet-up on different routes announced in advance. Aimed at participants who run above beginner level and want to improve on trails, it includes, depending on the route, technical running work, route-specific training, aerobic capacity development, climbing and descending skills, endurance work and enjoyable trail runs. Distances vary between roughly 10 and 15 km depending on the route and the session; participants wear the Trail Runner T-shirt.
Track sessions run from 20:00 to 21:30 until the end of September, and from 19:00 to 20:30 from October until the end of June. Sunday trail runs take place from 08:00 to 10:30 in winter and from 07:00 to 09:30 in summer. T-shirt costs are covered by participants. In the Tuesday and Sunday groups costs are shared monthly or for the season; for the Thursday event a small seasonal contribution is made in a single payment.
The Road Runners and Trail Runners groups train with the club's coach, @yilmaztongul.run. For contact, the club uses the @runaktif account on Instagram and the address runaktif@gmail.com; it also has a Strava page. Joining the WhatsApp community is by invitation. In the club's own words: "Same road, everyone at their own pace."
Our main aim is to move together, make running enjoyable and support a sustainable active lifestyle.
