    Smile Esk Valley Training

    As discussed at our AGM this thread is for Eskers who are going to the hills to let people know of their plans and hopefully get more of us running together more often.

    To start things off I will be running from Ingleby Cross tomorrow at about 7pm. If anyone can make it let me know.

    Back to work on Monday so will be too depressed to move tomorrow night. Is there a club run Tuesday and are you racing Wednesday?

    This thread is for training in addition to the usual club runs on Tuesday.

    I can't make race on Wednesday so will be out on Tuesday. This week should be at Swainby but info not on web-site yet. The Scugdale Skyline has been suggested as a possible route if you fancy a long one!

    Nice half marathon distance. Gentle run out after your turner landscape battle.

    I was thinking we should change the monthly Ayton run into a high intensity quality session. This run is usually shorter than normal because people want to goto the pub after. Could we not keep it shorter but do hill reps or something similar? Just freshens it up a bit. Then on the other 3 weeks of the month we can do decent longer runs at the other locations?

    THink Im just bored with running out of Ayton!

    There was talk of the first-Tuesday-of-the-month-run no longer being tied to Gt Ayton as pretty much every other location we use is either by or near a pub. Would freshen up the pub aspect too!

    Re: Esk Valley Training

    Just finished September training info for website. Venues are:
    Tues 10 Sept - Bank Foot
    Tues 17 Sept - Carlton Bank
    Tues 24 Sept - Hutton Village
    Tues 1 October - Swainby (and Black Horse pub)

    As for hill reps we used to do these quite regularly but not everyone seemed to enjoy them for some reason! No reason we couldn't do hill reps from any venue and I think it makes more sense on a head-torch run as there isn't a view to be sacrificed.
