Thursday's run is a pre-race run as a large proportion of the club are doing the Allan Scally Road Relays on Saturday. As is usual for a pre-race run, the total distance is quite short and incorporates 6 x accelerations to slightly faster than 5k pace with the distance of the acceleration being about 70 to 80m.
The route is Strathaven Rd to Greenhills Rd, up to the water tower at the top of Lickprivick, over the top and down the footpath that leads onto the Murray Rd. From there, return to the club. Decide within your packs where each of the 6 accelerations will be. Choose flat or slightly downhill sections for that. Stay relaxed during the accelerations, no straining.
