As promised last week the distance at pace steps up to 4000m. The session is 10 x 400m with 200m recovery jog. We have been running the session on the tarmac path by the soccer pitches at the Ballincollig Regional park, the original intention was to run the intervals on grass. Over the first 3 weeks the weather has been too bad to go on the grass but it looks like this week will be different. Also with the better weather the paths will be busy with walkers, dogs and probably kids on scooters. For that reason we are planning on moving to the back rugby pitch, the surface there is very good.
Just in case people don’t know the location of the pitch we will meet at the carpark by the start location for the Ballincollig Park Run, in the picture the Park Run start is by the toilet and there is a pin dropped on the rugby pitch.
Session
Easy warm up (10 minutes)
10 x 400m with 200m easy recovery jog
Cool down
Please try to get to the carpark at 6:55pm and we can move to the the pitch at the same time. On the off chance that we have rain we can always revert to the tarmac path. The carpark is relatively small so if possible car pool, alternatively if the carpark is full there is additional car parking space in the church carpark just outside the entrance to the park.
