Training
What can you expect on the night training runs?
Fartleks and interval training:
Our session leader provides a structured training schedule to improve your speed, stamina and strength. These generally include five or six efforts totaling approximately four to six miles.
Steady pace:
These groups are determined casually on the evening depending on how far, how fast, and how much effort you want to put into your run. The runs are normally four to six miles at an eight to ten minutes per mile pace.
What to wear:
Anything that takes your fancy, although you are requested to wear a reflective vest during the winter months for your own safety.

TRACK SESSION |
|
These are when members of the club arrange a short(ish) run from their home address during the summer months, with everyone welcome to come back to their abode for some nosh afterwards for a token fee of £2. These sessions are extremely enjoyable and gives everyone a chance to run some new courses and a great way to relax and socialise.
Home Run 14th August
After the normal track session we have
been invited back to Ruth and David Page for food, drink and cakes.
Further details will be announced at club nights nearer the time –
but definitely a date for your diary – even if you don’t
normally join us for track this may be worth giving the session a try!
This event is first held around the start of the track sessions, whereby you give a slightly undulating course of 5km around Braishfield your best shot! Then hopefully after doing a few track sessions at Mountbatten School the event is ran again but with all runners given a handicap starting time depending on their original time.
Well done to all those that took part on the first 5km time trial of the year around Braishfield on the 12th of May. These sessions will now take a regular spot in the training schedule, and the total results from the four sessions so far can be found here.
This event will be held on Wednesday the 18th of June 2007.. Please try and come along so we can field as many teams as possible, and don't worry your not expected to run the whole 10 miles just the one mile as fast as you can which roughly computes to four times around a 400m track.
These are held on Friday nights at Romsey School from 6.45pm - 8.00pm. Cost is £3.00 with coach Mark Adams. This is a great opportunity to do some cross training which can really help your running!
