Continuing Tuesday Speed Endurance Training Sessions starting at 7pm.

Tue 20 Dec as normal ** Tue 27 Dec Bank Holiday, training cancelled, but that doesn’t stop you doing your own session or linking up with some running mates for a Christmas special ;-) *
*Tue 3 Jan as normal**
From Tue 29th Nov 22. Please register at the Rugby Club by 7pm
We will jog to our start point on Staveley Road in Nab Wood.
Our session will consist of a warm up,
5 × 1/2 mile reps for two groups and 5 × 1K for the other group
Aiming to run each rep between 5 and 10 percent faster than your 5K pace with a 2 minute recovery.
Then jog back to the club. General : Tue Training sessions are based at Beckfoot School on grass or the B&B Sports Club fields depending on availability, or off-site at a suitable stretch of road or hill : check on Team App for meeting and training location.
A key target is to improve your 5-10k pace by working on your running speed and strength, and prepare you to represent the club in the forth coming Cross Country season.
The session is suitable for a wide range of running paces – the key thing is that you want to run faster. To get the most out of this for your running performance you need to attend regularly and have a regular weekly running schedule. Guidance will be available.

Since August the Tues Endurance training has focussed on a number of 300m reps at a strong pace with 1 minute recovery; your pace will depend on your current running pace – a 5k or Park Run time is a useful indicator. Since then a number of runners from the group have improved their 5k times with Parkrun or 10k PBs. Well done.

Training fees will be payable – initially as at B&B i.e. £1 for Members, £2 for Guests. A quarterly Pass (Members only) to cover Tue & Thu sessions £9 – online via Team App shop. Longer term this is under review and may need to be revised to ensure we cover the costs of our training locations.

If you have any queries please let us know.
