Training
The Club offers weekly structured training sessions, mainly focusing to improve running form and speed. Our weekly training is split into Summer and Winter traning sessions. The Summer sessions take place on the grass track at Kings Leisure Centre. The Winter sessions are a series of sessions in and around the streets of Cheddar.
Tuesday Training
Tuesday is our only structured Training session.
Summer
In the Summer we meet at 6.50pm on the Grass Track behind Kings Leisure Centre.
Winter
We meet at 6.50pm outside the entrance to Kings Leisure Centre ready to start training at 7.00pm.
As this is a Winter session and we run on the roads around Cheddar you must wear a reflective, hi-viz top and a small head torch as some areas can be quite dark.
The winter training programme for each Tuesday of the month is:
-
1st: Hill Reps.
-
2nd: 1km Reps.
-
3rd: Fartlek.
-
4th: Interval Session.
-
5th (if applicable): TBC
Thursday
Thursday sessions consist of a series of informal, often social sessions, arranged between members.
A local pub visit or some chips might also be involved.
Quite a few people like to go off-road. In the Winter this can even involve a bit of night running.
Saturday
Although not an official training session, Saturday is usually parkrun day.
Cheddar has its own parkrun at Sharpham Playing Feilds, however club members often join parkruns in Burnham-on-Sea, Street and Ashton Court.
Weekends
Occasionally, when members aren't running in races or just recovering from a weeks training some members arrange informal sessions, usually off-road.
