Club Nights

Hi all, forms for this week are now up. Please put your name down if you’re coming along.

Jim was talking to Mark Hudson last night and he suggested we might try doing a tour of the Christmas penguins in the town (city) centre.

Rather than trying to shoehorn it into Tuesday or Thursday, we thought we could maybe do a social on Wednesday evening at usual club time, meeting from outside the hub instead?

Jim’s plotted a route that he thinks covers most of them, which will make it around 4.5 miles. Please let him know if you’re interested in that and if we get the numbers, I’m sure that’ll go ahead.

Anyway, Tuesday’s session will be from the Rail College and is a diminishing set of reps:
5, 4, 3, 2, 1 each with half as much time recovery (so 5 minutes / 2:30 rest, 4 minutes / 2 minute rest, etc).

Thursday’s route is R8 and there are a couple of shortcuts available on that one.

See you in the week!

Good morning everyone! Forms for this week are now up. As always, please put your name down if you’re coming along.

Assuming Doncaster Council spend a bit of cash on salt, then Tuesday’s session will be hill reps at the Cenotaph with Scully. Becca will lead a social.

We’re trying a new route on Thursday. It’s just under 7 miles, with a shortcut at around the 4 mile mark.

Don’t forget – VO2 Max testing seminar tomorrow evening (Monday 4th December) at 7:30pm for those interested in that (post: https://www.facebook.com/groups/danumharriers/posts/2376383019212307)

See you in the week!

The club shop is open, the link to the shop page can be found here.

T-shirts – the sizing are smaller than expected, we have a Large and XL at the Hub you can try for size, but generally go one size bigger than you think.

Hoodies – these have a zip, we have a few in stock at the Hub, check with us next Tuesday or Thursday if we have your size in stock, then you’ll have it immediately and won’t have to pay delivery costs!

Race Vests – to save you paying delivery cost, we hold a stock of club vests at the hub (£25), please speak to Julie or Lynn on a club night so you can try on before you buy.

The shop is open until 8th Dec, after that date all orders will be sent into production. There is an approximate lead time of 4-6 weeks for delivery.

Morning everyone, forms for this week are up!

In a break from Tuesday tradition, no intervals tomorrow night. We’ll be taking a breath after the year’s efforts and will be doing a big social instead.

You will need a head torch / regular torch for this if you plan to do the whole run. If you don’t have either, please let us know and we will try and arrange one for you.

We’ll be going into the woods (yes, the woods) for a mile or two towards the end. Jim hadn’t realised we’d get a dump of rain when he thought about this, but he and Julie have been for a recce this morning and the section we’re using should be okay. You’ll probably get away with an old pair of road shoes.

There are two shortcuts – one will take the run to about 3 miles, the other around 4.5. Both these options come back down Leger Way, so there’s the incentive to do the whole thing. 😅

This will be a good chance to catch up and natter with people you don’t usually run with and reflect one way or another on Donny 10K if you had done that.

A bunch of us will likely end up in Icebreaker tomorrow afterwards too, depending on the weather.

Thursday’s route will be R6.

We’ll resume interval work next week.

Jim will also put together a framework for spring marathon training and the smaller races that we’ll build into that and work towards as a club (including club champs races), which he’ll post in a couple of weeks and will start once Christmas is done.

Hopefully see a lot of you there tomorrow.

Hi all, forms for next week are now up!

Tuesday’s session will be:
2 * 3 min, 2 min recoveries
8 * 1 min, 90 second recoveries
Some quick strides to finish with (use lap button if programming this on your watch).

Thursday’s route is R10 (Hare and Hounds) and is just under 6 miles. There are a couple of shortcuts, which your leaders will make you aware of should you need them.

See you in the week!
