However busy your schedule is and however fast or competitive you are, we have training sessions that will help you become a better runner - or just run for fun. See when we meet and what activities we organise below.
Our training sessions
Thursday Club Nights - usually Galtres Centre, Easingwold - with our regular coaches
Our main training night. During the winter months most runs are in Easingwold for around 45 minutes including short exercises for those that are looking to improve. Once the lighter evenings arrive we take the opportunity to venture into the countryside around Easingwold, both on and off road. We also run from other locations organised by club members as "away evenings" Runs vary between 4 - 7 miles usually in groups of similar ability.
We usually run in groups of differing ability:
Black: Advanced runners. Normal 10K time under 42 minutes.
Red: Upper intermediate runners. Normal 10K time between 42.01-49 minutes and be happy to run up to 7-8 miles per session.
Orange: Intermediate runners: Normal 10K time between 49.01-56 minutes and be happy to run 5-6 miles per session.
Yellow: Lower intermediate runners: Normal 10K time 56.01-63 minutes and be able to run 4 to 5.5 miles per session.
Green: For steadier runners: Normal 10K time over 63 minutes or for beginners who are able to run 5K. Groups normally run between 3.5 and 5 miles per session.
If you are not sure which group you should be in, please check with a coach.
