Hell on the Hills!

Monday 20th July

Written by Jonny Carter

Tonight was a tough hill session of 2 sets of 8 minute Kenyan hills, followed by 6 hill sprints, with the first 3 being 30 seconds and the last 3 being 40 seconds! That last 10 seconds certainly got the lactic built up!

Once done we did a litter pick in the park as we headed back to Boldmere Gate.

Heat abated, but training certainly hasn’t!

Monday 13th July

Written by Jonny Carter

Tonight, was another good session with intervals including 6 x 30 seconds to start with, then followed up with 5 x 3 minute efforts, then 5 x 1 minute efforts. It was certainly a tough one, as you can see most sat down at the end!

The heat wasn't so fierce this evening, but the session certainly was! Once done we completed a litter pick as we walked down the hill back to Boldmere Gate.

Tonight after a late night for group leader Jonny the rest of the group, got into some hill reps! Luckily Jonny just did the timings and didn't have to do the hard yards!

The session was 2 x 8 minute sections of Kenyan hills, followed by 6 x 30 second fast hill sprints. Everyone worked really well together, it was great to see :)

Once done, we got some litter picked as we headed back to Boldmere Gate.

2 minutes, felt like 10 minutes!

Tonight in Sutton Park the group did a tough interval session of 8 x 2 minute efforts with 1 minute rest after each one!

It's certainly a tough one to pace as you can't go real hard like for 1 minute efforts but you need to go faster then 3 minute efforts. Its very good for improving the old VO2 max!

Once done, we got the litter pick done as we headed back down the hill back to Boldmere gate.

Hot and Muggy GoodGym!

Monday 22nd June

Written by Jonny Carter

Tonight the running club was slightly adapted as it was somewhat hot and muggy! I'm not sure anybody has mentioned it on social media!

The session was 10 x 30 second efforts followed by 10 x 20 second efforts off less recovery, definately a good one to get some speed in ones legs!

Afterwards it was onto the litter pick as we headed back to Boldmere gate.

From hill reps to bin reps!

Monday 15th June

Written by Jonny Carter

Tonight the group did some long intervals. 8 minutes on the flat, 8 minutes of Kenyan hills, 6 minutes on the flat and then 4 30 second lung busting hill sprints! Well when I say 'on the flat' if you know Sutton Park thats not strictly true, there is always some sort of gradient to run up or down!

Once done with all the hard running we were onto the litter pick. A friendly member of the public even took the group snap!
