Club Training Session - Saturday 22 October 2011

The club endurance coaches will take the opportunity of a race-free weekend to hold a multi-group training session in Ashton Court on Saturday 22 October 2011 meeting in the Mansion House car park at 10.00 a.m. The session will include a couple of options one of which will be sets of a three minute undulating loop followed by up to five 20 second hill reps. Senior athletes will do up to 6 sets with junior athletes doing sets (or parts of sets) as allocated by individual coaches.

Parents and other on-lookers are welcome as the whole loop is visible from a single vantage point but are advised that the Cafe in the Mansion House is currently closed - so bring your own refreshments if you need them.
