Tuesday Training – 28 August 2018

Tuesday training – Burbage woods off Smithy Lane

Just over 0.5 mile loop in the woods at current 5k race pace effort, in groups of similar ability.

30 seconds to recover.

Session 25 mins

Working on stressing your VO2 max (aerobic power) – good for parkruns. Also the session will help with leg strength and get you into the cross country mood!

Not sure how much longer we will have the weather and light evenings. Thought this would be a bit different.

Off road in Burbage woods – hopefully underfoot won’t be too bad, probably best not having slick soles though.

Usual meet at the Leisure Center at 18:15 for a 18:30 departure.
