SUMMARY:Rock n Road Runners - Thursday Coached Run Intervals CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to RNRR Coached Run Intervals!.  \nLOCATION: THE FREEDOM TREE\, ST HELIER\, 6PM  \n(The Radisson Hotel are happy for you to wait/get changed/use the loo inside the hotel if you are early.) \nThis is a 60 minute fully coached session suitable for runners of all abilities\, focused on building strength\, stamina\, power and speed through interval-based training. Basically\, they can help you improve your running regardless of your current abllity. \nThe session is lead by our professional run coaches Dan or Rik and the 60 minutes includes a thorough warm up consisting of easy running\, mobilisation work\, dynamic stretching\, drills and strides. The warm up also focuses on improving various aspects of your run technique\, biomechanics and efficiency. Not only will interval training improve your performance at all distances but it’s a really fun and social way to train. Anyone and everyone can benefit from interval-training regardless of experience level or goals and the coaches are always on hand to answer any questions. \nThe main set is usually interval-based\, meaning that there is some faster-paced running for a set time or distance\, interspersed with recovery which is either easy jogging\, walking or standing. The aim of each interval session is specifically planned to improve a certain aspect of your physiology\, such as your pace at Lactate Threshold\, Vo2 Max or increase your Running Economy and Neuromuscular Efficiency. (Don’t worry if you don’t know what any of that means\, the coaches will explain exactly what you need to do) \nThese sessions are also individualised for each attendee to cater for all abilities. We occasionally carry out 3k and 5k ‘time trials’ (or use a recent race result) to ascertain your specific pace zones for different running intensities. This allows you to run at the right effort for your ability and avoid overexerting and overtraining. If anything is ever unclear please ask the coach – they’re there to help you. \nYour first session is FREE and all subsequent sessions are £5\, unless you are a member of the Rock n Road Runners run club in which case they are always free. If you would like more information or are keen to join the club click here or email info@rocknroadrunners.je. First time? No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n  \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION: \nDue to the extreme weather we are currently experiencing\, we have made the decision to cancel intervals for tonight. We’ll see you all next week! \n  \nWarm Up \n3-5 min easy jog\nThen\n15 min mobility and drills \nMain set (36 mins) \nPart 1: VO2 Max Builder\nFocus: Maximizing oxygen uptake and cardiovascular conditioning.\n4 x\n1 min Tough (roughly your 3-5K race pace or perceived exertion 7-8/10)\n2 min Walk \nPart 2: Speed Endurance\nFocus: Improving anaerobic power and maintaining speed under fatigue.\n4 x\n45 sec Hard (Your personal best 1-mile race pace or perceived exertion 8/10)\n2 min 15 sec Walk \nPart 3: Speed & Anaerobic Capacity\nFocus: Running economy\, leg speed\, and neuromuscular coordination.\n4 x\n30 sec Very Hard (approaching an 800m sprint or perceived exertion 9/10)\n2 min 30 sec Walk \nThis is a structured descending-ladder interval session designed to build your lactate threshold\, speed endurance and top end speed all in one go. The effort increases as the interval duration gets shorter\, helping you recruit fast-twitch muscle fibers and improve fatigue resistance. \nTips for the Session:\n* Pacing: Avoid blowing all your energy in the first 1-minute VO2 intervals. The workout is designed to be tough\, so your power output should be strictly controlled in the first block so you can maintain clean form on the 30-second sprint efforts.\n* Recovery: Always walk for the prescribed recovery time to let your heart rate drop and to clear any build-up of lactate metabolism. \nCool Down\n \n5 mins of slow jogging/recovery in your own time. \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property. Members and guests shall take personal responsibility for their own actions and play or participate in the Club’s sporting activities at their own risk* \n\n

The float recovery allows lactate clearance to still occur whilst still running at a decent clip. It is important to keep the recoveries at an honest effort otherwise lactate levels will drop off too much and you’ll end up running the 10k efforts too hard\, changing the nature of the session. \nCool Down\n \n5 mins of slow jogging/recovery in your own time. \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property.

No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n  \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION: \nWarm-Up\n-Easy running: 3-4 minutes at a relaxed pace to get the body moving.\n-Dynamic stretches\n-Strides: 3 x 100m at build to 80% effort with slow jog back recovery \nMain Session \nPart 1:\n3-4 x 800m Repeats at 5k pace (approx 15 minutes) \n– Run hard but sustainable intervals (7 out of 10 effort) at a pace close to your 5k race pace.\n– Complete as many 800m reps as you can fit into 15 minutes. Take between 90 seconds and 2 minutes of static recovery between each interval. \nPart 2:\n4-6 x 400m Repeats at 5k pace (approx 15 minutes) \n– Run at a slightly faster pace than your previous intervals (8 out of 10 effort) at a pace close to your 3k race pace (VO2).\n– Complete either 4 or 6 400m reps within the 15 minutes so you finish the set by the tree. Take between 60 and 90 seconds of static recovery between each interval. \nPart 3:\n30-Second Fast Efforts (6 minutes) \n30 seconds of controlled fast running (8-9 effort) followed by 60 seconds rest. Repeat for 6 minutes (4 reps). \nTips:\n– Pace yourself: Start conservatively to maintain consistency across all reps.\n– Focus on effort: everyone should aim for their personal pace\, but likewise try and form pace groups to promote accountability.\n– If working in pace groups\, one person inthe group should monitor rest period.\n– 800m reps are end of the pier and back\, the 400m reps are one length of the pier. \nWhy This Session Works\n– The 800m intervals help build aerobic capacity and push your body to adapt to higher-intensity running.\n– The 400m intervals help develop your maximal oxygen consumption under fatigue.\n– The 30-second efforts improve your ability to sustain speed and finish strong during races. \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property.

Enables you to hold faster paces for longer before fatiguing. \nWarm-Up\n-Easy running: 3-5 minutes at a relaxed pace to get the body moving.\n-Dynamic stretches/Mobilsation\n-Strides (if time allows) \nMain Set \n– 800m Repeats at Critical Velocity Pace \nRun hard but sustainable intervals (approx 8-9/10 effort)\, an intensity you could hold for 30-40 min or around 5k-10k race pace.\n(Complete as many 800m reps as you can fit into about 30 minutes. Take 90 seconds of jogging between each interval. These 800m reps can be done as an out-and-back along the bottom of the pier starting at the Freedom Tree and running to the end and back\, and jogging by the Feedom Tree. \n– 5 x 30s Strides at Speed Form effort (60s jog back recovery)\n\nTips:\n– Pace yourself: We want to maintain consistency across all reps\, so now what pace you should be targetting and calculate how long it will take you to run 800m at that pace\, so that you aim for the same target time for each rep\, give or take 3-5 secs.\n– Work as a group – find someone who is a similar pace as you and work together as a crew to promote accountability and consistency.\n– Use “Lap Pace” instead of instantaneous pace on your watch face – this calculates and average so that you can gauge the pace. Even better\, try and run this without looking at your watch\, and go by feel/effort instead – “comfortably hard\, but hardly comfortable” \nCool-Down (5 minutes)\nJog: 5 minutes of easy running to let the body recover.  \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property.

Basically\, they can help you improve your running regardless of your current abllity. \nThe session is lead by our professional run coaches Dan or Rik and the 60 minutes includes a thorough warm up consisting of easy running\, mobilisation work\, dynamic stretching\, drills and strides. The warm up also focuses on improving various aspects of your run technique\, biomechanics and efficiency. Not only will interval training improve your performance at all distances but it’s a really fun and social way to train. Anyone and everyone can benefit from interval-training regardless of experience level or goals and the coaches are always on hand to answer any questions. \nThe main set is usually interval-based\, meaning that there is some faster-paced running for a set time or distance\, interspersed with recovery which is either easy jogging\, walking or standing. The aim of each interval session is specifically planned to improve a certain aspect of your physiology\, such as your pace at Lactate Threshold\, Vo2 Max or increase your Running Economy and Neuromuscular Efficiency. (Don’t worry if you don’t know what any of that means\, the coaches will explain what you need to do) \nThese sessions are also individualised for each attendee to cater for all abilities. We occasionally carry out 3k and 5k ‘time trials’ (or use a recent race result) to ascertain your specific pace zones for different running intensities. This allows you to run at the right effort for your ability and avoid overexerting and overtraining. If anything is ever unclear you can just ask the coach. \nYour first session is FREE and all subsequent sessions are £5\, unless you are a member of the Rock n Road Runners run club in which case they are always free. If you would like more information or are keen to join the club click here or email info@rocknroadrunners.je. First time? No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n  \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION: \n*This week’s session will be held at Westmount – we will meet at Freedom Tree and jog over to the playground as a warmup – feel free to meet us there* \nWarm Up: \n– 3-5 mins easy jogging\n– 10 mins dynamic stretching & mobilisation \nActivation set: \n– 4-6 x 10 sec hill sprints at near maximal effort / jog back down – coach will set you off one by one every 5 secs \nMain set: (40mins): Hill AMRAP (as many reps as possible) \nIn the allotted time complete as many reps as possible \nEffort for VO2 is hard / 8-9 out of 10 RPE / Breathing is shallow and rapid / Only a word or two could be spoken\nEffort for TEMPO is comfortably hard / 7 out of 10 RPE / Breathing is deep and laboured / A full sentence or two could be spoken \nEveryone will be working to the same time domain and will have the same recovery. You all go together as a group\, so everyone should aim to get back down to the bottom at the same time before starting again.\nBe guided by effort\, not pace – when we are going uphill\, pace may fluctuate as the hill grade varies\, but effort should be equated – approx 8-9/10 with breathing shallow and rapid. Gauge consistency by aiming to reach the same point on the hill with each subsequent rep. \nTry to remain really controlled on the Tempo so you are still able to put out power for the final 60s Vo2 hill efforts. \nAim of the session is to generate some fatigue\, lactate and other metabolites then run at a harder effort whilst fatigued (as you will experience on race day). We are teaching the body to clear these metabolites at faster efforts. If successful\, you should be able to put out similar power at the end of the session.  \nCool down: \n3-5 easy cooldown in your own time \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property. Members and guests shall take personal responsibility for their own actions and play or participate in the Club’s sporting activities at their own risk* \n\n

No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION: \n  \nWarm Up:-\n3-5 mins easy jogging\nDynamic stretching & mobilisation \nMain Set:- The Cooper run test:  \nThe Cooper Test is a common assessment of aerobic fitness. It involves running as far as possible in 12 minutes. The distance covered is then used to estimate your VO2Max (the maximum amount of oxygen your body can use during exercise – a key indicator of your aerobic fitness level)\, as well as determining your run training paces. The latter is crucial for several reasons:\n* Injury Prevention: Running too fast\, especially when starting out\, can lead to overuse injuries. Pacing helps you train within your limits and avoid pushing too hard too soon.\n* Training Effectiveness: Different paces serve different training purposes. Easy paces build endurance\, tempo runs (approximately 10k to 10 mile pace) improve your lactate threshold\, and interval training at your VO2 and Speed Form paces (approximately 5k pace and best mile pace respectively) boosts speed. Knowing your paces allows you to run at the right intensity during your workouts to bring about the intended stimulus get the correct adaptation.\n* Mental Focus: Focusing on maintaining a specific pace can help you stay mentally engaged during your runs and avoid distractions.\n* Progress Tracking: Monitoring your paces using the Cooper run test over time allows you to track your progress and see how your fitness is improving. \nGUIDANCE NOTES –\n* Make sure you have your auto lap setting turned off on your watch.\n* Treat this like a race – don’t go off too hard\, make sure you leave a bit in reserve so that you empty the tank in the last two minutes. Try and pace it as evenly as possible.\n* Go by feel – try not to rely on your watch for pacing. Try and start off about a 6/10 effort\, steadily building into a 7-8/10 effort by the first three minutes. Most of the test should be spent around your second ventilatory threshold\, the point where your breathing becomes out of control and very laboured\, and heart rate is very high\, deep discomfort\, about an 8-9/10\n* Once complete\, take a note of your distance – your coaches will give you your training paces and an estimate of your VO2Max based off this distance \nFor anyone on a generic plan who has been given the option of a 3k benchmark or 30 min threshold test to do instead\, they are welcome to join in the warmup\, and then do their own benchmark unsupervised. \nCool-Down: (5 minutes) \nJog: 5 minutes of easy running to let the body recover – In your own time after the session. \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property. Members and guests shall take personal responsibility for their own actions and play or participate in the Club’s sporting activities at their own risk* \n\n

DESCRIPTION:Welcome to RNRR Coached Run Intervals!.  \nLOCATION: THE FREEDOM TREE\, ST HELIER\, 6PM  \n(The Radisson Hotel are happy for you to stay warm/use the loo inside the hotel if you are early.) \nThis is a 60 minute fully coached session suitable for runners of all abilities\, focused on building strength\, stamina\, power and speed through interval-based training. Basically\, they can help you improve your running regardless of your current abllity. \nThe session is lead by our run coaches Dan or Rik and the 60 minutes includes a thorough warm up consisting of easy running\, mobilisation work\, dynamic stretching\, drills and strides. The warm up also focuses on improving various aspects of your run technique\, biomechanics and efficiency. Not only will interval training improve your performance at all distances but it’s a really fun and social way to train. Anyone and everyone can benefit from interval-training regardless of experience level or goals and the coaches are always on hand to answer any questions. \nThe main set is usually interval-based\, meaning that there is some faster-paced running for a set time or distance\, interspersed with recovery which is either easy jogging\, walking or standing. The aim of each interval session is to improve a certain aspect of our physiology\, such as our pace at Lactate Threshold\, Vo2 Max or increase our Running Economy and Neuromuscular Efficiency. (Don’t worry if you don’t know what any of that means\, the coaches will explain what you need to do) \nThese sessions are also individualised for each attendee. We occassionally carry out 3k and 5k ‘time trials’ (or use a recent race result) to ascertain pace zones for different running intensities. This allows you to run at the right effort for your ability and avoid overexerting and overtraining. If anything is ever unclear you can just ask the coach. \nYour first session is FREE and all subsequent sessions are £5\, unless you are a member of the Rock n Road Runners run club in which case they are always free. If you would like more information or are keen to join the club click here or email info@rocknroadrunners.je. First time? No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION: \n  \nWarm Up:-\n3-5 mins easy jogging\n15 mins dynamic stretching & mobilisation \nMain Set – Race Effort Intervals \n2-4 x\n10 minutes @ Race Effort (Tempo Effort if not racing)\n90s jog recovery \nThis is one of the final workouts in our race specific block of sessions\, with Spring Marathons just around the corner. Following on with over under alternations\, this is focused on longer periods of time at race day effort with short recoveries. If you are finding that you need to walk the recoveries\, then you are running too fast and need to slow down to a more manageable intensity. \nIf you are a beginner\, new to intervals or don’t have a race coming up then run the 10 min interval at a comfortably hard effort\, around 6-7/10 or a pace you could hold for 60mins.  \nCool-Down: (5 minutes) \nJog: 5 minutes of easy running to let the body recover – In your own time after the session. \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property.

Each length of the pier is effectively 400m. \nTips:\n– Pace yourself: We want to maintain consistency across all reps\, so know what pace you should be targetting and holding your /k pace\, so that you aim for the same target time for each rep\, give or take 5-10 secs\n– Work as a group – find someone who is a similar pace as you and work together as a crew to promote accountability and consistency.\n– Use “Lap Pace” instead of instantaneous pace on your watch face – this calculates and average so that you can gauge the pace. Even better\, try and run this without looking at your watch\, and go by feel/effort instead – “comfortably hard\, but hardly comfortable” \n \nCool-Down (5 minutes) \nJog: 5 minutes of easy running to let the body recover – In your own time after the session. \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property.

SUMMARY:Rock n Road Runners - Thursday Coached Run Intervals
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to RNRR Intervals!.  \nLOCATION: THE FREEDOM TREE\, ST HELIER\, 6PM  \n(The Radisson Hotel are happy for you to stay warm/use the loo inside the hotel if you are early.) \nThis is a 60 minute fully coached session suitable for runners of all abilities\, focused on building strength\, stamina\, power and speed through interval-based training. Basically\, they can help you improve your running regardless of your current abllity.. \nThe session is lead by our run coaches Dan or Rik and the 60 minutes includes a thorough warm up consisting of easy running\, mobilisation work\, dynamic stretching\, drills and strides. The warm up also focuses on improving various aspects of your run technique\, biomechanics and efficiency. Not only will interval training improve your performance at all distances but it’s a really fun and social way to train. Anyone and everyone can benefit from interval-training regardless of experience level or goals and the coaches are always on hand to answer any questions. \nThe main set is usually interval-based\, meaning that there is some faster-paced running for a set time or distance\, interspersed with recovery which is either easy jogging\, walking or standing. The aim of each interval session is to improve a certain aspect of our physiology\, such as our pace at Lactate Threshold\, Vo2 Max or increase our Running Economy and Neuromuscular Efficiency. (Don’t worry if you don’t know what all that means\, the coaches will explain what you need to do!) \nThese sessions are also individualised for each attendee. We occassionally carry out 3k and 5k ‘time trials’ (or use a recent race result) to ascertain pace zones for different running intensities. This allows you to run at the right effort for your ability and avoid overexerting and overtraining. If anything is ever unclear you can just ask the coach. \nYour first session is FREE and all subsequent sessions are £5\, unless you are a member of the Rock n Road Runners run club in which case they are always free. If you would like more information or are keen to join the club click here or email info@rocknroadrunners.je. First time? No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION: Session Focus: Improving lactate tolerance through Threshold intervals and fast\, controlled efforts. \nWarm-Up\n-Easy running: 3-5 minutes at a relaxed pace to get the body moving.\n-Dynamic stretches \n4 × 30-Second strides at speed form (approx 8/10 effort\, or best mile pace) followed by 60 seconds rest \nMain Set\n1k Repeats at Tempo Pace (30-35 minutes / max of 5-6 reps) \nRun hard but sustainable intervals (approx 7/10 effort) at a pace close to your 10k-10mile race pace. Complete as many 1200m reps as you can fit into 30-40 minutes. Take 90 seconds of static rest between each interval. This can be done as an out-and-back along the bottom of the pier starting at the Freedom Tree and running to the end of the pier\, back to the FT then back to the end of the pier. Three lengths of the pier is effectively 1200m. \nTips:\n– Pace yourself: We want to maintain consistency across all reps\, so now what pace you should be targetting and holding your /k pace\, so that you aim for the same target time for each rep\, give or take 3-5 secs.\n– Work as a group – we did this last week and it works well – find someone who is a similar pace as you and work together as a crew to promote accountability and consistency. Someone takes charge of monitoring rest time.\n– Use “Lap Pace” instead of instantaneous pace on your watch face – this calculates and average so that you can gauge the pace. Even  better\, try and run this without looking at your watch\, and go by feel/effort instead – “comfortably hard\, but hardly comfortable” \nCool-Down (5 minutes) \nJog: 5 minutes of easy running to let the body recover – In your own time after the session. \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property.

Think 10-16k pace or an intensity you could hold for about an hour. The 60s recoveries should be sufficient if you’ve paced these intervals correctly. \nHint: if you’re clock watching\, you’re probably running too fast. These should feel sustainable.

SUMMARY:Rock n Road Runners - Thursday Intervals
DESCRIPTION:LOCATION: THE FREEDOM TREE\, ST HELIER\, 6PM (You can wait inside the back entrance of the Radisson hotel and stay warm/dry until we start if you’d like to) \nThis is a 60 minute coached session suitable for runners of all abilities\, focused on building strength\, stamina\, power and speed through interval-based training. Basically\, they can help you to improve your running. \nThe session is lead by our run coaches Dan or Rik and the 60 minutes includes a thorough warm up consisting of easy running\, mobilisation work\, dynamic stretching\, drills and strides. The warm up also focuses on improving various aspects of your run technique\, biomechanics and efficiency. Not only will interval training improve your performance at all distances but it’s a really fun and social way to train. Anyone and everyone can benefit from interval-training regardless of experience level or goals and the coaches are always on hand to answer any questions. \nThe main set is usually interval-based\, meaning that there is some faster-paced running for a set time or distance\, interspersed with recovery which is either easy jogging\, walking or standing. The aim of each interval session is to improve a certain aspect of our physiology\, such as our pace at Lactate Threshold\, Vo2 Max or increase our Running Economy and Neuromuscular Efficiency. (Don’t worry if you don’t know what all that means\, the coaches will explain what you need to do!) \nThese sessions are also individualised for each attendee. We occassionally carry out 3k and 5k ‘time trials’ (or use a recent race result) to ascertain pace zones for different running intensities. This allows you to run at the right effort for your ability and avoid overexerting and overtraining. If anything is ever unclear you can just ask the coach. \nYour first session is FREE and all subsequent sessions are £5\, unless you are a member of the Rock n Road Runners run club in which case they are always free. If you would like more information or are keen to join the club click here or email info@rocknroadrunners.je. First time? No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION:  \nWarm-Up:\n2-3 mins – easy jog\nDynamic stretching and running drills \nMain set \nAlex Hutchinson Ladder:\n5 min @ BMP – VO2\n2.5 min @ JOG / WALK\n4 min @ BMP – VO2\n2 min @ JOG / WALK\n3 min @ BMP – VO2\n1.5 min @ JOG / WALK\n2 min @ BMP – VO2\n1 min @ JOG / WALKstraight into…\nAs many rounds TO FAILURE of;\n1 min @ BMP – VO2\n1 min @ JOG / WALK\nstop when you can no longer sustain the pace \nThe purpose of this descending ladder workout is to deplete your anaerobic capacity – the more this reserve tank in emptied\, the more efficiently your body replenishes it – this results in better recovery rates\, optimization of oxygen consumption\, and overall more time accumulated above VO2 pace. The key is pushing yourself to nearly the point of exhaustion on each effort.\nMore info about the principles and physiology of this\, and other ladder workouts here -https://www.outsideonline.com/health/training-performance/ladders-interval-workouts-research/ \n \nCool Down: \n5-10 mins easy jog in your own time. \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property. Members and guests shall take personal responsibility for their own actions and play or participate in the Club’s sporting activities at their own risk* \n\n

No need to book – just turn up and introduce yourself to coach Dan or Rik (they wear pink “coach” high viz tops) \n\nTHIS WEEKS SESSION:  \nWe continue this block of VO2 efforts\, incorporating 400m repeats with no fixed rest time domain between reps – this session should be run by feel! \nWarm-Up:\n2-3 mins – easy jog\n18-20 mins – dynamic stretching and running drills \nMain set \n8-15 x 400m repeats (at varying paces depending on ability.) \nFaster runners should aim for a challenging but maintainable pace\, approx vo2 pace\, which is similar to 3-5k race pace\, while beginners can run at a comfortable but steady pace\, approx tempo pace\, which equates to 10k race pace. \nRest: self selected static recovery between each rep (to be determined within each pace group) \n*** This session is to be run “blind” – you can still have your smart watch to record the session\, but we want you to go by feel in pacing each rep\, so no glimpsing at your watch!!!! We are also not defining the length of your recovery – your squad goes when everyone thinks they are ready!!!! Be sensible and work as a team – if you feel the efforts are beconin to much\, give yourself more recovery. \nHit your lap button at the start and end of each rep\, but don’t rely on your timer to dictate the time domains. \nCool Down: \n5-10 mins easy jog in your own time. \n  \n\n*Please note: Both club members and guests attending these group runs acknowledge and accept that playing or participating in sport of any kind can be dangerous and may result in injury and damage to property.
