Planning on this to be the last of the tempo runs in the Business and Technology Park, we will hopefully be moving to Rose Hill Upper for 4 weeks of hill repeats, this is close to the bottom of Sunday’s Well directly across the road from the Mardyke. After the 4 weeks we will be on to the track in April for the summer.
This weeks session is straight forward enough, 4 x 3 minutes, 4 x 2 minutes and 5 x 1 minute at tempo with 50% of the tempo time as recovery. For anyone doing the Kinsale 10 at the weekend, I would recommend just doing the 4 x 3 minutes and just jogging round for the rest or if you want a sharpner do the 4 x 3 and the 5 x 1.
Usual meeting arrangements for meeting up, for those who like a longer session meet at the carpark on the city side of the Kingsley Hotel at 6:30pm and run over with the group via the Curraheen River walkway. Alternatively meet at the first roundabout inside the Business and Technology Park on the Model Farm Road at 6:50pm. For any newcomers to the club or first timers I would recommend going directly to the business park. The session is run on a 1km loop, the group spreads out along the loop so no one gets dropped.
Please wear some Hi-Viz clothing or small light. There is a visitor’s carpark in the business park, just turn right at the first roundabout and the carpark is about 300m down the hill on the left.
