New Training Approach
Due to the large number of members attending each training session, sometimes over 40, there is a great risk of an incident happening. Often the gap between the slowest and quickest runners is huge and with a limited number of coaches personal safety is at risk. The coaches have agreed we must reduce this risk by dividing the training group into two.
So, as from this Thursday we will be asking members to move into one of two groups:
– Group A will be for those members who can maintain a pace of under 8 minute miles for a 10k run.
– Group B will be for members who run over 8 minute miles for a 10k.
Both groups will do the same training just at a pace best suited to their group’s ability and each group will have a lead coach. We will also be sending each group on different warm up & cool down routes to & from the various training sites to avoid overcrowding the pavements around the Town Hall.
The coaches thank you for your cooperation in ensuring this new training regime is successful as it is for your own safety and to ensure all members enjoy a good training session with the club.
