Wednesday Track Session 16th September

We've gone through the distances and are back up to 1600s or repetition miles. I know I tend to harp on a bit about this session but for anyone going long either 70.3, full IM or a late season marathon this is a really great session. Really good from two points of view, it is a great conditioning session if done correctly but also close to race time is a real indicator of race readiness....

Wednesday Track Session 9th September

Back to a more straight forward session this week, repeat 1200s. Moving into the area of speed endurance for the next couple of weeks. Just 4 x 1200m with 600m easy recovery jog. Usual instruction for these longer intervals, try to keep the pace even across the 4 intervals and even across the 3 laps of each interval. Session Easy warm up…...

Wednesday Track Session 2nd September

Well done to everyone who completed the Lost Sheep last weekend, you will know best yourself but do take a proper recovery. Going to try a similar session to last week by splitting the session in the hope of getting a little more speed into the intervals. The session is a set of 800s but splitting into two sets of three rather than a straight 6....

Wednesday Track Session 26th August

Aware that this is is the week before the Lost Sheep. For anyone doing the LS I would suggest just doing 4 of the 12 400s, absolute max of 6. So as above we will be doing 12 x 400m, just for a change to a regular session, I am proposing to divide the session into 3 x (4 x 400m) with 200m recovery between the 400s and 400m between each of the blocks of 4....

Reverse Mixed Distance This week we are going to do the mixed distance set, of 400s, 800s and 1600m but this time doing the set in reverse with a different objective. This week the set will start with the 1600m with everyone noting their pace. So if you run 6 minutes for the 1600m your pace to the 1600m is 1m30s per 400m....

Wednesday Track Session 12th August

Looks like we will be running through a solar eclipse this week, starts at 6:00pm and maximum coverage at 7:00pm when we start. Should make the session even more interesting. This week we are going back to the mixed session 4s 8s and one 1600m. Session Easy warm up Dynamic stretch Strides 4 x 400m with 200m easy recovery jog…...

Wednesday Track Session 5th July

I know I've said before (often) but for anyone going long, Lost Sheep, half IM, full IM or half or full marathon this week's repeator1600s are a key session. They are a great conditioner but also a great indicator of where you are at. The session is 3 x 1600m with a very easy 500m recovery Session Easy warm up…...

Wednesday Track Session 29th July

This week we are moving on to 1200s, three laps of the track. As we go to longer intervals the sessions get a little more difficult. For anyone going long, half ironman, full or the Lost Sheep the longer interval sessions are key. As usual, try to keep the session even across the 4 intervals and within each interval even pace across the the three laps....
