Craig will lead a group of up to twelve people, departing from outside the Y Club at 6:00pm. The total distance is around 8 miles.
You must sign up in advance; numbers will be strictly limited to twelve people and you will not be allowed to run with the group if you have not registered in advance.
Session Format
Our group runs take place every Thursday, starting at the Y Club at 6:30pm. After a quick warm up, the Captains will gather the group together for Club Notices, after which we split into sub-groups before heading off on one of our many routes.
Each group will run at a different pace and will be led by a club member, so there should always be a pace group suited to you. The number of groups is flexible depending on the number of runners down on any particular night, but we’ll generally have the following six groups:
Group 1:
- 8 miles (13 km)
- 7.00 min / mile (4.20 min / km) +/- 30 secs
Group 2:
- 8 miles (13 km)
- 8.00 min / mile (5.00 min / km) +/- 30 secs
Group 3:
- 8 miles (13 km)
- 8.30-9.00 min / mile (5.20-5.40 min / km) +/- 30 secs
Group 4:
- 8 miles (13 km)
- 9.30-10.00 min / mile (5.50-6.15 min / km) +/- 30 secs
Group 5:
- 6 miles (10 km)
- 10.00 min / mile (6.15 min / km) +/- 30 secs
Group 6:
- 3 miles (5 km)
- This group will run at whatever pace is comfortable for everyone
If you’re not sure which group to go in on your first visit, we'd advise starting off in Group 6 and try to work your way up to the next one!
