For those looking to participate in the NN CPC Loop Den Haag (again) and wanting to prepare properly, Haag Atletiek offers special CPC training sessions. You can train for the half marathon or the 10 kilometers under expert guidance without needing to become a club member. The group training sessions start on December 2nd, and the program is designed to ensure you are fully prepared to complete your desired distance on the day of the CPC, at your own level. Attention will be given to running technique, conditioning, injury prevention, and, of course, enjoyment in running. Sign up quickly, as spaces are limited!
More information about the group training sessions, registration, and costs can be found on the website.
Registration is open until January 31, 2025.
Additional Information
Haag Atletiek is located on Laan van Poot and offers training sessions near dunes, the beach, and low-traffic streets. To ensure a safe training process, Haag Atletiek applies an entry-level requirement: for the 10-kilometer group, you should be able to run 3 kilometers in approximately 20 minutes; for the half marathon, the requirement is 5 kilometers in 30 minutes. If you are unsure, please contact Haag Atletiek.
Entry Requirements
To join the 21 km training groups, participants should have a reasonable level of fitness. You are expected to be able to run 5 km in approximately 30 minutes. If not, we recommend opting for the 10 km group. The entry-level requirement for the 10 km group is being able to run 3 km in about 20 minutes. The training program is not suitable for people with no prior running experience. If you have never run before, the program may be too challenging as a starting point. Transitioning from no exercise to running three times a week is a significant step, and we want everyone to begin safely and effectively.
Training Sessions
The CPC project kicks off on Saturday, November 30, 2024, at 9:45 AM at the sports complex on Laan van Poot. After an initial division based on distance and level, participants can look forward to varied training sessions multiple times a week. The surrounding area, with beaches, dunes, forests, and low-traffic roads, is ideal for these sessions.
Haag Atletiek’s training schedule for the first two weeks:
•Saturday mornings at 9:45 AM
•Monday and Wednesday evenings at 7:15 PM
After that, training times will shift to 9:30 AM and 7:00 PM.
Over the following three months, participants and trainers will follow a carefully structured schedule that ensures gradual progress in both duration and speed. This step-by-step approach helps prevent injuries and maximizes the chances of achieving the best results.
