Following the results of the survey circulated (and thanks to so many of you for responding with such an overwhelmingly positive response), we have finalised the plans for our Autumn race training. We will be running the training programme on Thursday evenings for ten weeks, commencing on 15th August, and culminating in the Great South Run on October 20th and/or the Gosport Half Marathon on November 17th
If you missed the survey, or need a refresher on the programme, you can find it at AVR Autumn Target Races and Coaching Plan | News | Avon Valley Runners
Tim Burrell will be the lead coach for the programme, and he is delighted to have a brilliant and inspirational team who will act as your group leaders and mentors to ensure that the training and the race(s) itself will be a truly memorable experience. Your group leaders will include Ed and Gemma Knudsen, Hayley Anderson, Paul Dredge and Becky Fletcher.
As we will be training for a 10 mile and Half Marathon distance (or both if you fancy it!), you should currently be able to run a 10K distance (at any pace). However, this programme is designed to cater for everyone. Whether you are nervously wondering whether you can achieve your first half marathon (you can!), or are an already proficient runner looking to achieve a PB in these distances, this programme is for you.
In order to secure your place, and be allocated to the group appropriate for your aspirations, we to invite you to sign up to participate in this exciting programme, which you can do on the link below.
