Start Running in Barcelona with Primeras Zancadas
If you want to start running in Barcelona but do not know where to begin, our Primeras Zancadas programme is designed specifically for beginners who want to learn progressively, safely and with professional guidance.
Starting on your unning journey can feel overwhelming when you are unsure how to train, how often to run or how to improve without getting injured. That is why at Prorunners Barcelona we created a beginner-friendly running programme with structured sessions, expert coaching and a supportive community.
With Primeras Zancadas, you will follow a clear and progressive plan adapted to your level from day one.
Through in-person sessions guided by a coach, you will improve step by step while combining the workouts with a simple weekly running structure so you can also continue progressing independently between sessions.
GOAL & TRAINING
The goal of Primeras Zancadas is not simply to help you run 5K without stopping. It is to help you build the confidence, consistency and habits needed to make running part of your lifestyle.
Over 3 months, you will progressively improve your fitness through guided sessions based on alternating walking and running intervals, always adapted to the level of the group. The training is designed to feel accessible, motivating and achievable for anyone who wants to start running in Barcelona, even with no previous experience.
By the end of the programme, you will not only feel more comfortable running, but also more confident continuing your training independently or progressing into the next level at Prorunners Barcelona.
WHEN AND WHERE?
All Primeras Zancadas sessions start from Ramon Turró 303, where Prorunners Barcelona is based.
At our club space, you can get changed comfortably and leave your belongings during the training session.
THE COACH
The sessions are led by Ainoa Ruiz, a Prorunners coach with extensive experience in endurance sports.
Ainoa holds degrees in both Sports Science and Physiotherapy, specialising in endurance sports such as running and cycling, as well as sports physiotherapy and rehabilitation.
Her passion for sport also extends beyond coaching, as she regularly practises triathlon in her free time.
