w/b 8th Jan

6/1/2018

 
From this week, I am going to try to identify one of the sessions for which I am going to suggest an adaptation for those aiming for marathons or longer races, though anybody can join in.  I will do this for sessions on a Wednesday or Thursday since starting these at 6:30 allows a little more scope for lengthening them.  Also note - I have a minor change to the schedule changing "9's" to "Tempo" on the 7th and 15th Feb.


Plan for the week
Mon (7:30) - 800s.  Low Stobhill.  Two laps X 6.  2 mins recovery from the time the first person completes two laps (around 3 mins).
Wed (6:30) - Track 1600s.  1000m to start and then 3 X 1600m.  2:30 recoveries.
Thurs (6:30) - 2's and 1's.  Kirkhill.  6X 2:00 efforts with 1:00 recoveries then 6X 1:00 efforts with 1:00 recoveries.


Marathon plus preparation
For the session on Wednesday, cut the recoveries down to 1:30 - 2:00 and aim to do 4-5 X 1600m.


I am around all week.

    UKA Level 2
    The main requirement to join the group is a desire to improve your running. It is very much
    for people who have raced e.g.
    a 10K or GNR and now
    want to get faster.
    I provide sessions that a broad range of athletes
    can take part in.
    I can provide individually tailored advice to runners regarding training and racing
