Training

Barlick Fell Runners have a structured training programme which caters for all abilities and the details are below.  In addition, we have a complete beginners session which is basically a couch to 5K course and the next one will start in the Spring, when the weather gets better.  The training sessions for the coming week are shown below.  Further details of what is involved in each session is lower down the page.

Monday with Leanne Dinsdale

The meeting place varies, but this is always posted on Facebook, along with what footwear is needed and usually what the session entails. It tends to alternate between a hill session one week and a speed session the next. with a social run thrown in every now and again.
 
The sessions are tailored for all abilities, the aim is to get everyone, regardless of ability, fitter and faster.
 
Wednesday Track Session with Matt Watson

These track sessions are open to members of all abilities and will be tailored to individual needs and goals. 
 
These sessions can be used to supplement a member's own training regime, but they also work well in conjunction with Leanne Dinsdale's Monday night hill sessions, adding some flat running to improve speed and running technique on the flat.

There is no charge other than the fee for using the track.
 
Wednesday - Pub Run

These are informal sessions and cater for all abilities.  Each week, those taking part meet up at a local hostelry, have a gentle running session lasting around an hour and then retire to the bar to sample the local ale and chew the fat.  Everyone is welcome on these runs including none members, in fact, they are a good way to get to know the ethos of the club and decide if it is for you.

The venue for the next pub run will be published on the Barlick Fell Runners Facebook Public Page.

Thursday with Hannah Newbold

These will be time trials and will take place every two weeks.  For the first month, they will be over 5K, increasing to 7K and 10K over the following two months.

The venue is The Anchor at Saltergate, with a starting time of 6:30 pm.
