Cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic

16th March: Following advice from the UK government to minimise social contact due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic (coronavirus), Manchester YMCA Harriers track sessions and group runs are cancelled until further notice.

This is a 30-minute session, where you need to partner up with someone of a similar ability.

The session consists of 600-metre efforts, followed by 200-metres of walk/jog recovery. (i.e. One-and-a-half laps of effort, followed by half-a-lap recovery.)

Complete as many sets as you can in the 30 minutes.

Partner 1

  • 600m efforts start at the line and end at the 200m mark at the far corner.
  • 200m recovery walk/jog starts at the 200m mark and ends at the line.
  • Completes their 200m recovery during the time it takes Partner 2 to complete their 600m effort.

Partner 2

Track sessions are organised by Phil and Katie at the Manchester Regional Arena. We will start with a few warm up laps and dynamic stretches at 6:45pm, before going in to the main session.

Entry is discounted to £2.70 for running club members, and there is a further discount to £2.50 for those who live in the Manchester City Council area.
