No more training sessions

It was decided by the regular members of the training group at a meeting last night, the group will not be running any more under the NCH heading, merely as runners in a private capacity. The regular numbers have dwindled and the worsening congestion on Nottingham roads are among the reasons for this decision. So after just over 14 years the advertised Tuesday sessions have now ended.

Training this Tuesday 2nd Jan 2018

The 7 minute milers will be doing their 5 miles course from Bramcote L C from approx 6.15pm - meet from aboiut 6pm in the foyer. As promised in my last blog in November I will attempt to drive to the Tennis Centre in a reasonable time aiming for a 6pm start (traffic may force a delayed arrival). Approx 7 miles at about 9.30 -10 mins per mile pace.
Training and Racing: Tuesday 19 January 2010 - Sunday 24 January 2010 Tuesday 19 January - 6:30pm Tennis Centre for a 10 mile run on the Wollaton route. Fingers-crossed the weather will hold! How about 4 x 1M @ 10k effort with 3 min recoveries. Wednesday 20 January - 5:30pm Tennis Centre for a 11.5M hilly run. If you're interested give Ben a call/text - start time is flexible. Sunday 24 January - 9am Probably Papplewick for a 14, 18 or 21 mile run around the woods of North Notts - will check on the weather later in the week.
