Monday is a threshold Monday (doesn't have the same ring to it as a Thursday). The session is 3 x 8 minutes with a 2:30 jog recovery. Once again, we will do this out on the Auldhouse roads on a relatively flat route. Warm-up on Strathaven Rd and around by Sainsburys to the Langlands junction where the reps start. Run past the Langlands club house to Auldhouse. Run straight through Auldhouse cross and turn right past the Kennels. Carry on along Shields Rd to the fingerposts and then turn right on Greenhills Rd. If the faster ones are running out of space to complete the reps (I don't think you will), turn right into the Kelvin industrial estate at the top of the hill on Greenhills Rd and run around the Sainsburys circuit anti-clockwise to finish. As always with threshold sessions, maintain constant effort by varying the pace to suit the slopes and wind. The effort should be about two or three word talking level.
Thursday's run will be an easier run with strides ahead of the Grangemouth 10k.
