GET BACK RUNNING: Terms of Purchase 

Hi, Mary here, I am so excited that you are planning to purchase the self-paced course, Get Back Running. Before you buy the course there a few things you need to know about what you are purchasing, what you can expect and the support you will get from me / Forget The Gym. Please read the terms below and if you have any questions once you’ve finished please do not hesitate to get in touch and I would be happy to chat further.  

Mary  

The terms and conditions set out below apply to your purchase of the self-paced programme, Get Back Running offered by Virunga LTD trading at Forget The Gym. Please read them carefully as they affect your rights and liabilities under law and set out the terms under which we provide services to you, as purchaser of the Get Back Running course. These terms are subject to any rights you have under consumer law to which we are bound to and which cannot be waived. 

Course Outline 

Get Back Running is a self-study course which uses running coaching tips and techniques alongside mindset support to assist you in regaining your love of running, which may have been lost owing to injury, pregnancy or just a long time away from the sport.    

Course Specifics 

Following successful purchase of the bundle you will receive access to a four-weekly training plan delivered via videos, email and podcast.  

You will then have the opportunity to work through the course material in your own time. The course provides strategies to help you set intentions for your future.   

The course has been tried and tested by individuals who are over the age of 18 and from various different backgrounds. In working through the material, they have been able to regain their love of running. This is a personal course for you to complete entirely at your own speed. For best results it is recommended that you under-take each module at the recommended weekly intervals.   

Whilst all those who have taken the course to date have achieved the desired results, it is not possible to provide any guarantees that you will experience any specific results. Failure to complete the self-study materials will limit your ability to benefit from the information provided and will significantly limit any results. The course is not bespoke and includes general advice. You have the option to complete weekly feedback and accountability reviews and ask questions via email but personal, tailored responses will not be entertained.  should you feel that you need additional support, such as 1:1 coaching advice or in-person technique assessment you should reach out to [email protected] in the first instance.  The material in this course could cause additional issues to arise, at no point should you delay in obtaining medical input from health professionals.  

It is not intended that you will finish the course with a complete and detailed running plan beyond getting back to regularly running for approximately 30 minutes, 2-3 times per week. No guidance on pace or distance is provided in this course Get Back Running  provides strategies and methods to help you return to running after a prolonged break from the sport. It is your individual responsibility to apply what is shared and taught in the course to your personal circumstances both during the course and afterwards. Each individual is unique and their starting position and commitment to the course is unique to them. The aim is that following completion of the course you will have new information, strategies and techniques and have the enthusiasm to run recreationally on a regular basis.  

Please be aware that the course is delivered entirely in English and no translations are provided for videos or text.
