Newsletter 22nd May 2021

Hi

A day early – just to keep you on your toes!  Hope you all had good runs on Tuesday night.  I think you all managed to dodge the showers.

Tuesday Night Runs

Gentle Joggers will be running from Bosbury Church this week at 6:45pm

Meeting time is still 6:45 and the venues are shown on the spreadsheet.

The spreadsheet has been updated.  You still need to add your name to the list for Track and Trace purposes  and if you are unable to run, please remove your name as usual so that the group knows not to expect you.

The Tuesday spreadsheet can be found here:-Tuesday Night Spreadsheet

Thursday Night Sessions

It has rained for the last 2 Thursdays so it’s good that people are still turning up for them.  Everyone is welcome.  The format of the sessions to date has been:-

  • Warm-up – a variety of exercises to get those muscles ready for some work
  • Several short targeted sessions – for example short interval repeats, parlauf, team relays
  • Cool-down  – stretches and a gentle jog to allow your heart rate to come back to normal.

As we go through the weeks and as restrictions and weather allow, we will do other things such as hills and  cross country techniques.  Want to find out more?  Come along to a session and see how you like it?
