Week Commencing 3 June 2013

Training on Monday 3 June : for the August World Championship group, a hill session from my place in Oxford. For the October World Championship group, a 10k-ish fartlek from Tilsley Park. Those not planning a World Championship this year can take either session.

Training on Wednesday 5th : for both groups, on the track for drills and 200m intervals.

Beginners’ and easy sessions also available, from Tilsley Park on both days.

Training at the weekend : if not racing, October group should do a 15k-ish. August group could do less. Does anyone want to suggest anything ?

Racing during the week : on Tuesday there is a 3000m race at Ashton Playing Fields, East London, at 8:30 pm, and on Wednesday, there is a 4 mile race at Bromley at 7:30 pm.

Racing at the weekend : on Saturday, at 1pm there is the Southern 20k Championships, at Donkey Lane, Enfield. DetailsĀ here – you must enter by Monday, 3rd June.

On Sunday, there are the Midland Area Track Championships over 5000m for women and 10000m for men, at Tamworth. I would expect that guests will permitted, possibly even female ones in the 10000m. Details incuding contact phone number and email address are here.

Racing next week : don’t forget to enter the Oxfordshire T&F Championship race, over 3000m at Iffley Road on Wednesday evening, by emailing john.sear@gtc.ox.ac.uk.
