Next Thursday we’re trying something a little different, with an extra Threshold Training option led by Kev alongside our usual social run.
🔥 Option 1: Threshold Session
The threshold session will follow the same route as the main social run.
- The base pace will be around 60–90 seconds per mile slower than your 5k / 10k target pace.
- Sections of the route run at target race pace – the Threshold element. Typically, there will be around five threshold efforts, lasting up to six minutes each.
- The threshold group run together between threshold efforts.
As we approach the marathon season, future sessions will be focused on half marathon and marathon training. Also, some future sessions may use a Fartlek format, mixing up the pace throughout the run.
This is a great option for anyone who would like to add a little more targeted, quality running to their Thursday nights, while still enjoying the social side of the club.
🌿 Option 2: Social Run
Our usual Thursday night social run will continue as normal, with plenty of regrouping and a relaxed pace.
🍻 Both groups finish at The De Havilland
Whichever option you choose, we’ll all meet back at The De Havilland Arms afterwards for a drink and social catch-up.
Please select your preferred group on Spond.
This will help us organise the session effectively and make sure we have the right number of run leads.
Whether you fancy social miles or a bit more speed work, there’s an option for everyone!
