The club runs 3 training sessions per week throughout the year all designed to complement any training programme, to help you achieve a goal, to improve your PBs or just to make you stronger, fitter and healthier.
Monday circuits
Monday evenings are taken by a UKA qualified coach in running fitness, and are designed to improve running technique and strength. The sessions are designed to be achievable by all, no matter what the starting point is as all of the activities can be scaled to the appropriate level. The session will start at 7pm, so aim to arrive at 6:45pm and have a warm up jog first.
Wednesday Club group run
Wednesdays 6:20pm. A run where all the club set off together for any distance or speed to suit you. At 6:20pm we do a mass warm up then we do announcements and move off at 6:30pm. Pace poles are available before we start for those relatively new to the club so you can find fellow runners at the same pace and distance. Distances vary from approximately 3 up to 10 miles. During the winter our routes remain the same each week, to ensure we use safe areas like quite roads or pavements with street lighting. During the Summer our meeting locations vary so we can make good use of the light nights. At club run we ask that people are able to run a minimum of 3 miles.
Club run – Away night. Once a month from April to September (inclusive) a run is planned at an alternative location, convening afterwards in a local hostelry for food. As soon as the locations and dates have been confirmed, they are added to the club calendar.
During the winter we often organise head torch runs, but taking advantage of the many footpaths and rural trails around Beverley. Trail shoes and a head torch essential!
Thursday speed
Thursday nights are the club’s weekly speed work session, taken by a UKA qualified coach. The sessions are designed to be suitable for anyone capable of running with the club on a Wednesday night. These sessions include a mixture of faster paced running and mobility work, and are an excellent way to improve your running across the full range of race distances.
Friday Improve your running.
If you want to improve your running (and perhaps get a little faster) come along and join us on a Friday evening. We meet (and warm up) at 6:00pm and we are normally finished in about an hour. All abilities are welcome especially those who don’t yet feel confident about joining the Thursday speed group. It is a coached session normally run by Patrick Marshall.
