Week #3 of the 5K training program had 25 in attendance on June 7th. Once again, we had 4-5 new people. Over the course of the three sessions we've had 35-40 different people participate. The session began with Becky discussing the role of heart rate in the training program. She distributed a chart that enabled everyone to determine their target heart rates for various exercise levels. After the group did their 800-1600 meter warm-up, Becky divided the group into 5 teams for shuttle relays which consisted of each person performing the following: high knee, kick butt, slide, skip and sprint. Members of the winning team were awarded commemorative coffee mugs. Then, the group entered into the speed phase of the evening. This workout consisted of 4 x 300 with a 100 walk/jog recovery and 2 x 600 with a 200 walk/jog recovery. The workout concluded with the 800-1600 meter cooldown. The sessions will continue each Tuesday at 5:30 pm at Thames Elementary track. The sessions are designed to meet the needs of the beginner, intermediate and advanced runner. Come on out and join us. | |||
