Warm Welcome

Please give a warm welcome to Tara Adam and Catherine McMurray who have recently joined the club.

Training this week:

Tuesday June 13: Mile repeats @ 5k pace x 3-4, 3 min recovery. Rosyth Castle loop. Meet at the bottom of the lane past the Rosyth Doocot, Milne Road meeting place. Plenty of street parking available.

The session will be led by Lesley.

Thursday June 15:  Speed Supersets: 200m @ mile pace, 200m @ 3k pace            (continuous), 1k @ 5k pace, 2 minutes recovery x 3-4. The session will take place in Pittencrieff Park (aka The Glen). Meet by the Glen Pavilion Cafe. Glen Pavilion. Parking available in the city’s car parks.

The session will be led by Kathryn.

The session leaders will lead a warm-up at 18:30, leaving from the session meeting place, followed by a dynamic warm up at 18:45 and the sessions will start at 18:50.  If you can’t make the 18:30 warm up, don’t forget to do a good warm up before the dynamic warmup, and do a cool down after the session.

The Return to Running group will also be meeting in Pittencrieff Park on Thursday. The group is ideal for members wanting to ease back into training or looking for a gentler session.

If training needs to be cancelled for any reason, we will post on Facebook.

Remember, if you have any symptoms of any potentially transmissible illness (not just Covid), please do not attend training.
