From Zero To Run Recap

Did you miss out on our first virtual self-guided run program? Don’t worry! We got you covered. Check out the wrap up of our program below, and keep an eye on Zest Wellness for future offerings!

The Zero to Run program was geared towards beginners, with the goal to run a 5k OR for 30 minutes consistently. The program was created by Catherine Burns of Natural Nutrition in Bermuda and distributed virtually across all jurisdictions. The program Run date was November 9, 2020 – December 18, 2020, a total of 6 weeks. We had an astounding 165 members registering from across all jurisdictions.

How did the program work?

There were weekly in-person workouts in every jurisdiction, plus Zoom accountability calls throughout the program with lead trainer Catherine Burns (BDA), and local WhatsApp groups for added accountability and communication. Weekly email wrap-ups were sent by Catherine Burns with additional nutritional information, tips on stretching and motivation, advice from the trainers, and much more.

A comprehensive resource kit was sent to all members who registered, containing a run schedule, nutrition schedule, and many other helpful resources. The idea behind this kit was to give members all the tools they needed to succeed during the initiative and in the future to repeat the program as many times as they wished. 

How did it go?

The program was a success! 100% of members surveyed said they would partake in this program if offered again. Some feedback from members is below:

“(This program gave me the…) motivation to live a better and healthier lifestyle.”

“(This program showed me the…) importance of consistency.”

“(This program gave me…) more confidence in my ability to build my stamina and getting stronger in making a conscious choice to create the space for the time I need to get the exercise in.”

“Learning to be more active and a lot of healthy meals and options.”
