Quality Sessions
These sessions are most beneficial for all runners and will definitely improve your speed and endurance. They include varieties of speed training suited to your level of fitness plus the monthly Spring & Summer 4 mile Time-Trials. It is advisable to have been running regularly for 2 - 3 months before joining these sessions. Tuesdays are normally hill reps, speed-endurance training and Thursdays are speed work & time trials.
If you have not tried the club training sessions before they are held on Tuesdays and Thursdays, the Tuesday session starts in the car park of the Locks Heath Sports and Social Club off the Warsash Road at 7pm and the Thursday session starts in the Crofton Community Centre car park at 7pm in the winter and at Crofton School in Marks Road, Stubbington in the summer. Everybody is welcome, it is not only for the quicker runners every one can benefit from these sessions, you can do as much or as little as you like it is up to you, come along and give it a try.
The Friday sessions are aimed at the 17-25 year olds and if you would like come along, just turn up on the night. If you would like more info please contact or ring 07795 305206.
For newcomers to speed and endurance sessions who are not quite ready to join the main group and wish to try out some quality running at a more gentle pace, runs an alternative monthly schedule.
