Autumn Training Programme
2010
12 Week 2010 Autumn Sept to Nov
Programme
To help build strength and speed over
distance.
Each session is designed to be undertaken as
near to your threshold as possible. Key to
completing the session well is maintaining a
pace which you can finish the last interval at
time as quick as or faster than the first. The
key is not to burn out to quickly but finish the
whole session strong. Over the 12 weeks your
speed and stamina should be better enabling you
to run faster for longer!
The sessions are for all and benefit at whatever
level you run at. Everybody at the club is
welcome and the sessions are done in a fun and
encouraging environment with plenty of team
support.

5k Time Trial - 21st
June 2008
The plan for this inaugural time trial was for road runners to get limbered up before sunday's 10k and 2k race marshalling duties. unfortunately, it seems that rain affected play and in the end, a die-hard group of 11 started out on 12 and a half laps of the athletics track.
MJR's daughter ensured that
there was no missed laps! Here are
the results::
