First a few words about the coaches – Dave Cartwright ( England Athletics Leader in Running Fitness) and Dave Ozanne ( England Athletics Coach in Running Fitness) - bring a wealth of knowledge and experience as distance runners to the sessions. They are committed to the task of coaching and share in common a passion for encouraging others to train well and stay motivated with goals, and take a genuine pleasure in others achievements. To this aim the sessions take place every Tuesday throughout the year bar extreme adverse weather conditions. 64
Some runners are unsure if the sessions are suitable for them; however they really are suitable for any regular runner who wants to improve their running form, time or distance. I joined the club myself as an inexperienced veteran runner and have no doubt that participating in the Tuesday ‘Speed sessions’ has enabled me to compete across all distances and improve on times. As mentioned in the note you run at your own (best) pace and not against others. To achieve this the sessions are always structured. Every session starts with a warm up jog to the location for that week – usually about 10 – 15 minutes. This is then followed with a series of warm- up drills – a mixture of lunges, high knees, strides etc., to mobilise the joints. You don’t need to remember these as it’s instructed by the leaders. Again there’s no competition – you move as best you can. We then start the main focus of the session (hill reps or laps). The sessions rotate around different locations and different content to add variety and challenge. For example, when it is the ‘Pendulum’ down Pardy’s Hill and Haywards lane – we will all be set the task of continuous running for 30 minutes. A runner of my capability will manage 2 -3 full 65
