Long Hill Run With Paul And Good Running Form!


Had a great run with Paul on Saturday over the hills of Parbold and Ashurst Beacon.
Opened it up on a couple of the climbs and felt very strong :0]
In the evening Paul, Clair, Stevie, Mandy and myself had a good night on the town, ending up in the Fox and Goose for some live rock music! 
Sunday was an easy run with Jon along the sandhill 6 route.
Monday was Brian's last track session of the year, next week we meet at the Ainsdale pinewoods.
Running down to the session I tested myself up Selworthy hill and was pleased to set a new record of 11.9 mph average pace, this compares to 10'8 average pace I achieved back at the start of May!
The session of 8 x 600 m went well feeling stronger on each effort!
Also quite impressed with Pauls running right now!

    Hi Mandy,
    Hope you have got over your hangover?
    the sessions in the pinewoods start at 6.30 pm next monday , we meet about 100m down the tarmac track from the entrance off the Ainsdale coastal rd.
    Sessions can be quite varied often on loops round the woods.

    Sessions at greenbank track will start again next May.
