An important notice
Core strength is critical to running efficiently (and fast) and helping to prevent injuries. If your core is strong you generally feel much stronger in your running. One of the best ways of improving core strength is Pilates. It is therefore great news to hear that our own John Butters is running a Pilates class at Morpeth Rugby club on Tuesday evenings at 6:30pm. If you want more info, I suggest you email John (fellrunner1975@gmail.com). Plan for the week Mon (7:30) - Track 800S. 5 X 800m with 2-3 min recoveries: 1st 800m at 5K pace; 2nd 700m at 5K pace then 100m faster; 3rd 600m at 5K pace then 200m faster, 4th 500m at 5K pace then 300m faster, 5th 400m at 5K pace then 400m faster.
