Wednesday Tempo Run 23rd November

This week’s session is a normal format but also set up to accommodate the people racing in Clonakilty at the weekend. we’ll start with 5 x 2 minutes and then 3 x 4 minutes. The recommendation is that those doing Clon would just do the 5 x 2, everyone else does the full session
