We are on an approximately 2 week rotation of sessions in the lead up to the Winter racing season meaning that it is time for a threshold Thursday. The session is 3 x 10mins at threshold effort (the effort you could maintain for about 1 hour in a race situation; the breathing just starts to become laboured after a few minutes such that only 2 or 3 words could be gasped out, etc.) The jog recovery between efforts is 3 minutes. We shall try for a bit of Auldhouse in the fading light. Warm-up to Sainsburys main gate and start the first effort there. Head towards Langlands clubhouse and head on to Auldhouse, turning right at Auldhouse cross towards the new houses. Carry on through to the Fingerposts and Greenhills Rd. Stay on the pavement on the right hand side of Greenhills Rd. On reaching the roundabout at the top of the hill at the Kelvin Industrial Estate, turn right down the hill and back down the Sainsburys Loop in an anti-clockwise direction. The 3rd 10 minute effort will probably finish somewhere on or before that loop. Cool down back to the club.
Remember that Chatelherault is finished now due to lack of daylight, therefore Monday is faster than threshold reps.
