Speed Work.
This weeks challenge set by coach Donal, for anyone who wishes to add some speedwork to their schedule is listed below…
Warm up (including drills, high knees and some hip mobility)
10 x 90 seconds hard effort with 2 minutes easy jog recovery between efforts
For anyone feeling a bit adventurous you can run a couple of the 90 second efforts on a hill, but not so steep that you can't maintain a consistent effort for the full 90 seconds
Cool down
Donal has put together a Garmin*fit file for this session which can be downloaded here.
Please follow the government's guidelines on social distancing.
Meet the Chasers.
This weeks interview is with Mark Lamb. Mark can usually be found volunteering to put on a head torch and lead the challenging hills of Highgate and Hampstead route - Thanks Mark! Keep an eye on the Facebook and Instagram page to see who we will be chatting to next!
