Club Training Thursday 1st February

Thursday's session is a session which transitions from the basic threshold sessions we have been doing for some months to the sort of session that brings us towards a peak for the forthcoming races starting with the National and continuing through the Scally and early Spring road races.

The warm up is to Langlands Place via the Strathaven Rd and Sainsburys. Then do 4 x 400m at 10k pace with 30 seconds recovery. Then transition immediately into 3 x 6 minutes at threshold with a 2 min jog recovery using the Sainsburys loop in a clockwise direction. Cool down via the Strathaven Rd back to the club.

The aim of the session is generate some fatigue in the legs before then transitioning into a threshold session where the aim is to operate just on the limit of aerobic effort i.e. being able to speak a few words only.
