Club Nights

Hi everyone, forms for next week are up. Please put your name down if you’re coming along!

No social yet on Tuesday, will update the form if that changes. Intervals will be 10 * (3 mins, off 90 secs recovery) @ ~10K pace.

Thursday’s route is R1.

See you in the week!

Morning all! Booking forms for this week have been up a couple of days, but we forgot to post (it’s worth checking the website on a Sunday if you’re a definite for the week, since they’re usually done by then).

Anyway, only the Tuesday sessions to book into this week. Please make sure you put your name down if you’re coming to either.

There’ll be a choice of either social with Andrew Chapman, or intervals at the Rail College.

The interval set will be laps of the perimeter (number variant, will explain on the evening.)

A reminder that it’s Chris Ramsay’s away run from the Glasshouse in Kirk Sandall on Thursday – if you’re coming and want to be fed, please make sure that you have transferred your money in advance. The order goes in on Wednesday.

Club membership fees for 2023-2024 are due on the 1st April 2023. The fees this year are:

· 1st Claim membership – £31. This includes £14 Danum Harriers Running club membership, plus £17 England Athletics (EA) membership. The Committee made the decision to freeze the Danum Harriers Running club fee for 2023/2024.

· 2nd Claim membership (where your 1st claim is with another running club) – £14.

Please can you transfer your payment to our usual bank account (contact Amanda Lane or Jo Derx for details if you do not already have them).

In the reference field please can you state ‘Fees & <Your Name>’. This ensures that we can relate each payment to the person transferring the money.

Contact & medical detail changes
A lot can happen in a year so if you’ve changed your address, mobile number, etc. please can you email the Club Secretary, Amanda Lane, at secretary@danumharriers.co.uk with any changes. Please can you also logon to your EA portal and update the details on your EA profile.

If your medical conditions have changed, please can you logon to the EA portal and update your EA profile.

It would help us greatly if you could pay your club fees by the 1st April. We continue to carry out the membership registration ourselves rather than outsourcing it to a third party. This means that we don’t pass those costs onto you in the membership fee but it does mean that there’s a great deal of time and effort involved in the membership renewal process. We are aiming to get everyone registered with the EA in the first week of April.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you to another great year of running with Danum Harriers.

Best wishes
DHRC Committee

Hi all, forms for the forthcoming week are up! Please remember to put your name down if you’re coming.

Jo will lead a social on Tuesday.
Alternatively, the interval set will be a mixed fartlek session from the Rail College consisting of:

15 * (90 seconds, off 90 seconds) – Everyone

~3-5 min complete rest. G4/5 option to leave at this point.

5 * (60 seconds, off 60 seconds) – G1-3 (optional for G4/5)

Thursday’s route is R11R.

See you in the week!

Hi all, forms for next week are up! Please remember to fill out your name if you’re coming to any of the sessions.

Tuesday’s social run will be with Amanda and Julie, around 6.5 miles on tarmac at ~10m/m.

The marathon plan has relaxed fartlek around RC perimeter pencilled into it, but having given that some thought, I’m changing it to something out of the club library:

1234321 with 1/2 rests (e.g 1 min on, 30 sec off, 2 min on, 1 min off, 3 mins on, 90 secs off and so on).

For those who are racing and also in marathon training, I would consider whether you will be rested enough for the interval set and should instead switch to the social.

Thursday’s route is R10R.

Good luck to everyone who’s racing Sunday morning!

See you there or in the week.
