Why does the club put time and effort into these sessions?
Answer- A long time ago the committee looked at what we did as a club throughout the winter months, dark nights and limited training routes especially from Shaw Lane. Part of this review also looked at how we could help our members improve their running. Not many of the club members did specific speed or hill work, this was for a variety of reasons, too hard to do on your own, don’t know what to do, never thought about it. One other point which was highlighted at this stage and is probably one of the most important points to come out of the review, was that as a club, group of people other than at the start of the evening (club night) we don’t really get to know each other. The fast group do their thing, medium group do theirs etc and we never really mingle. So long story short these sessions are club sessions they are intended not only to improve your running but so we can integrate with each other. Please don’t think I can’t do them, the will be too hard, everybody will be waiting for me, because we have heard it all before, believe me. We are a club with a wide range of abilities but on these nights we all work hard, we all suffer the same and we all encourage each other on to greater things. So please come and join in, after all you are a member of a fantastic club and this is what helps make our club what it is.
