Running Club News 22/6/15

A quiet evening this evening as many people are away, caught at work or nursing little injuries. For those who did run it was a perfect evening… Cool, sunny and dry…..and that was just Pete!

Lindsey attended her first Monday evening session with us this evening having run with the Friday group on a couple of occasions. She ran with Sharon, who as always, motivated and coached her along well. Their 10mins per mile was very impressive. Well done ladies!

This week it was just Mike and Sue running the longer 6.1mile route. Mike set off like a rocket as always on his 10th run in 10 days!! The route is tough, mostly an uphill gradient with an off-road mile! But Mike made light work of it finishing in just over 7mins per mile. Sue did awesome too, running with Charles as a pace setter early on then blasting forward on her own, she really did push herself well tonight! Her 8m46s per mile was just 4 seconds per mile off her fastest PB which was set on a route half a mile shorter and a lot easier! Well done Sue!

Charles set a fast pace early on and he managed to maintain a good rhythm round the 4.3mile route. Finishing with a 9mins per mile average, very impressive!! Good luck next week Charles!

Pete found his new trainers worked this evening as he took over 5mins off his time on the same route last week. His average, one of his fastest of the year was fantastic. At 8m 28s per mile Pete looks like he is nearing his best again! Well done!

Same routes next week for a final time.
