Running Club starts on Mon 7.9.2026

The Running Club starts on Monday 7.9.2026, and group runs take place every Monday at 18.00. Although the group is called a Running club, you’re also welcome to walk during the runs, as the instructor will always provide the route.

The starting point varies so that we can explore the city of Pori while we’re out walking outdoors or running. The run always ends at the same place where it started, and it lasts about an hour.

Running club is free of charge, but check out the enrolment instructions below.

Info:

The Running Club is open to everyone, regardless of running experience or ability. Whether you are completely new to running or already an experienced runner, the sessions are designed to be relaxed, social, and enjoyable.

Each weekly session will cover approximately 3–5 km, with a structured warm-up and cool-down included. The focus will be on building fitness gradually, developing confidence, and enjoying running as part of a group rather than focusing on speed or competition.

The location will change each week, allowing you to discover different parts of Pori, explore new routes, and meet people from across the college. It's a great way to stay active, get outside, and be social while discovering what Pori has to offer.


Everyone is welcome — no matter your pace or experience. Come along, meet other students/staff, explore Pori, and enjoy a run together!
