Monthly Training Schedule
We meet on Monday and Wednesday evenings at various locations in and around Blyth, the main session starting at 7pm with an optional warm-up beginning at 6:45. Sessions are designed to be suitable for everyone, we have members at ‘the sharp end of races’ while others run just for fun or simply to keep fit.
If opting to miss the optional warm-up session it is advised to do your warm-up before the main session starts, please wear high viz or bright clothing for training sessions, (especially during dark nights).
Most sessions will have longer and shorter options if the number of coaches allow.
If interested in helping out at our sessions either as a Coach or Run Leader please speak to one of the existing coaches, further information is available HERE.
