As i mentioned last week the session this week will be divided into two sections. I’m just aware that quite a few of the people who partake in the sessions are running either the half marathon or the full marathon on Sunday. These people are probably on a taper week. My opinion for the taper is that the volume should be reduced significantly but is good to keep a little bit of pace to avoid that sluggish feeling. Those racing on Sunday should just do the first part of the session, for those not racing feel free to do the whole shebang
Session

Strides
Part 1
5 x 2 minutes with 1 minute easy recovery jog
Part 2

As mentioned this will be our last run at the showgrounds for a while. We will be moving to the UCC Farm for the 5 Wednesdays in June. Usual meeting arrangements, at the entrance to the showgrounds at 6:15pm alternatively a group meets at the entrance to the UCC Farm at 6:00pm and jog over to the showgrounds, a distance of about 1km.
The Munster Agricultural Society have been very good to us since we were turfed out of the industrial estate, letting us use the grounds completely free of charge. Their show is going to be running on Saturday and Sunday the 14th and 15th June, we are appealing for some club members to act as marshals for the show. We are particularly asking people who did the sessions do do some stewarding. I will put up a separate post about this looking for names. In the meantime anyone who can help out can dm me on WhatsApp
