Thursday's session is the start of a block of training where we will be looking to improve aerobic capacity i.e. maximise the ability to use oxygen to the benefit of 5k to 10 mile primarily but useful for even longer distances by giving a bit of pace reserve to surge in the middle of a longer race or to build to a long sustained effort at the end of a race. The session is at Langlands Place (usual warm-up) and consists of:
10 x 400m at 5k pace, 1 minute static recoveries + 6 x 200m, slightly faster pace (not sprinting) with 200m jog recoveries. As the weeks progress, we shall gradually reduce the recoveries between the 400's.
