We train on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. All sessions are at 6.30pm (for a 6.45pm start) unless otherwise stated on the schedule, and cater to a broad range of ages and abilities.
Tuesdays
Tuesdays are typically more centred around interval workouts. This could be speedwork, hill reps, fartlek, or just something silly. These are always at your own pace – so you can stop anytime for a breather, or push harder if you’re feeling good.
Thursdays
Thursdays tend to be social club nights. This means that we go out for a relatively simple run in three groups. Again, all at your own pace: you can take it easy and have a bit of a chinwag; push yourself for a tempo run; or anything in between!
We try to do as much trail running in the summer as possible, where pace is very much secondary.
In the winter months, we concentrate more on road running, where we have different groups with more awareness of pace:
- Group #1: 5:00/km (8:00/mile)
- Group #2: 6:00/km (9:40/mile)
- Group #3: 7:00/km (11:20/mile)
- Group #4: run-walk
These paces are very approximate and are just a rough indication of the group on that night.
Most importantly: Absolutely nobody is too slow for a social club run and nobody gets left behind.
Saturdays
We are big advocates for parkrun, and our members can usually be spotted at our local evenings in Worthing, Littlehampton and Lancing. Once a month, we also try to meet up and do a less-common parkrun together. More information on our parkrun tour here.
