Yes, it’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for, the new schedule is here!
With this week being easy week, the new schedule starts next Monday. There are two main focus points within it: the Bella 5k and the GSR.
The sessions have been structured to offer a range of training from hard (e.g. for people focussing on HM training to complete the Club Championship criteria) to maintenance for people who are just coming off a hard racing period (e.g. for people who are doing a lot of hill races at the moment).
As usual, there will be a run option on a Monday evening, and the variation within the number of reps and sets should allow poeple to decide how many and what intensity is best for them.
Of course, should you want to discuss anything in the schedule or supplementary training then we will do our best to help.
Hope you enjoy the sessions,
Jonathan 🙂
