Tuesday 19 July
This week's session is Fartlek on the Leisure Centre track, with James & Lindsey at 6:15pm and Kevin & Lindsey at 7:00pm. You should warm up for at least 10 minutes prior to the session start time, either on the way to the track or around the school field when you arrive.
Coach James says: 'The description below anticipates slightly cooler weather by Tuesday evening, but we’ll adapt the session according to the conditions, for example by introducing a break or two and adjusting the length of the speed efforts.
Fartlek means ‘speed play’ in Swedish, and is a great way to develop your aerobic capacity and practise your pace judgement. A loop will have been laid out on the field, this will incorporate some of the running track and some of the hill in the field corner. Cones will indicate the start and finish of each speed effort. The session is 25 minutes of continuous running with each effort being at Zone 3.
Your speed after an effort should be the same as it was before you started it. Think about running tall with a nice upright posture, both for the efforts and recoveries'.
Thursday 21 July
Thursday's run is the Coastal Path. Meet in the lower Leisure Centre at 6:35pm for a 6:45pm start, where Neil is MC and will get you into in your groups. You may choose a tempo or more social run, a 45 minute out and back run, or a walk.
After the run is tea/coffee and biscuits in the Leisure Centre bar, do please join us for a drink and a chat.
