What you will need for training:

When you attend the run sessions on a wednesday it is recomended that you bring a water bottle and wear suitable clothing for the weather conditions.  Better to strip down than start cold!

You can wear any kind of running shoes at the track, from fast road trainers to trail trainers. If you wear spikes (track or XC spikes) the spikes should be no longer than 6mm.

When you attend the long run once a month, it is again advisible to bring a water bottle and suitable clothing, also high visible clothing as part of this may be on or close to roads. In the winter months reflective clothing and/or lights (head torch) will be recommended. We will communicate before each long run the distance and terrain so you can come prepared.

With all run sessions if you can arrive 5 minutes before we start so we can start on time and all go through the full warm up drills.
