Club Training Thursday 30th March

Given that there are 10 Harriers signed up for the Tom Scott 10 mile road race on Sunday, Thursday's run is a relatively easy run with a change of pace. For those who did Brampton last November, take a note of your average Brampton pace per mile or per km.

The session is at the Sainsbury's loop and is 5 complete laps of the circuit. Run the first three laps at one minute per mile (approx 40 seconds/km) slower than your Brampton pace (if you didn't do Brampton, choose someone in your pack to run with and run at their pace). For the fourth lap, pick the pace up to precisely your Brampton pace. For the 5th lap, slow back down to 1 minute per mile (40s per km) slower than your Brampton pace. You will have to work slightly harder to maintain the pace on the uphill parts and work easier on the downhill parts. Press your lap button at the start/finish of each lap.

This session is all about self control and knowing your pace. I shall be checking pace judgement on Garmin Connect/Strava!
