Structured Training
Tuesday 18:30 - 19:30
Cost: Free to members, £2 for guests
This group is for any runner (from the age of 12 year old) who can run at least 5k or 3 miles.
Our Tuesday evening sessions are the cornerstone of our training program. We believe in a varied approach to running, combining road and off-road routes to challenge your body and mind. Our workouts incorporate a mix of hill repeats, fartlek, lactate threshold, and interval training to boost your cardiovascular fitness, endurance, speed, and stamina.
To cater to runners of all abilities, we divide our group into three paces. Whether you're aiming for a new PB or simply enjoying the outdoors, you'll find a group to match your fitness level. Sessions typically cover between 3 and 7 miles, providing a solid workout without overwhelming new runners.
Our experienced coaches and run leaders, all DBS checked, guide each session. They'll provide expert advice, motivation, and ensure you're running safely and effectively.
