It’s been another great week for the Harriers, with training sessions, races, and parkruns keeping us all moving!
Tuesday saw our regular club night meet, where the session was a challenging 8 x 600m efforts with 2 minutes of recovery between each rep. While the group was a little quieter than usual, we still had a solid turnout from our seniors — and plenty of determination on show. 💪
Wednesday marked the final race of the Grand Prix series — we’ll have a full run report coming soon, so watch this space!
Saturday brought another round of parkrun action for our members:
Simian Adams took on Belton House with a buggy and still flew around in 22:03!
Giles Hawthorne ran at Great Denham, clocking 20:58.
Michael Gilbert, Alison Burton, and Richard Burton all headed to Snowdon Field. Michael bagged a course PB with 28:08, Richard finished in 33:54, and Alison came in at 36:45, incorporating her run into an interval training session.
Alongside these events, several of our members have been keeping up with their own training plans — fitting in long runs, speed work, and strength sessions to keep progressing.
Well done to everyone who got out there this week, whether in a race, training session, or parkrun — it all counts towards those goals! 🏅
