πββοΈπβ€οΈ Another busy week at TAC! β€οΈππββοΈ
Tuesday Adult Group Runs
Tuesday night saw all five groups heading out into the Torquay hills β because apparently we like making things difficult for ourselves! πβ°οΈ
πΈ Level 2s were put through their paces by Martyn on a 4.5-mile loop taking in Torre, up to Shiphay and back down through Chelston.
πΈ Level 3s, led by Anita, enjoyed a lovely 5-miler with a healthy helping of hills. But hey, this is Torquayβ¦ what else did you expect?! π
πΈ Level 4s headed up to Babbacombe Downs before dropping down through Meadfoot and making their way back towards the seafront β a scenic 7-mile loop with plenty of ups and downs.
πΈ Level 5s took on the infamous 5 Hills route, with some extra hill efforts thrown in for good measure! πͺ Eight miles at a pretty punchy pace β ouch! π₯
Thursday Adultβs Speed Session β‘οΈ
Martyn was back with another of his brilliantly inventive speed sessions. This week it was 10 fast-paced laps of his special 400m course around the Riviera Centre. Fast feet, plenty of effort and probably a few questionable life choices by the final lap! π
Saturday = Parkrun Day! π
TAC were out and about at Parkrun this weekend β running, volunteering and celebrating Parkrunβs 22nd birthday! π
And, most importantlyβ¦ did anyone wear a tutu?! π©·π
A bunch of our juniors headed to the lovely Halton Forest Parkrun, with Henry bagging a PB. Meanwhile the adults were spotted proudly repping the yellow at Cockington Court, Torbay Velopark and Teignmouth. Sara ventured to Somerset for a spot of Parkrun tourism at Street. πβ€οΈ
Another week of running, racing, supporting and plenty of club spirit. What a team! ππβ€οΈ
