Virtual sessions 15/17 September
Hi all, This weeks virtual sessions are below. Unfortunately we can't offer a Zoom session this week. Tuesday - Decreasing intervals This session is also delivered by Suzanne in the video below. You're going to run 1 mile, followed by 1km, then 800m, then 600m and finally 400m. The aim is as the distance reduces your pace should increase. So aim for 5km pace for the 1 mile and the try to increase your pace for each interval. Have a 90 second walk/very slow jog recovery between each interval. It's a tough session, but really good to improve your 5km pace. Thursday - Hills Find a long hill. Run up and down the hill 6 time. After the 6th time have a 2 minute walk recovery. Repeat this a further…

The Cleveland STAY relays… Our next challenge
The Cleveland Way Relays were meant to have been on Sunday 21st June. Unfortunately, they have been cancelled this year. However, we thought that for our next Striders Challenge, we would do our own version of the relays in teams. There are 16 legs on the Cleveland way (you can see them all here - https://www.nym.ac/cleveland-way-relay-info/) of varying lengths - from 6k to 14k, and we are looking for people to run the distance for each leg at any point on the weekend of the 20/21 June so that each team runs the length of the Cleveland Way (though it obviously doesn’t have to be on the Cleveland Way). When you sign up we will randomly allocate you a team and a leg. If you don’t want to run the length…
