Tuesday Evening Structured Training - Sessions for All Levels
Our Tuesday evening group training sessions are the cornerstone of our weekly training schedule. We believe in a varied approach to run training, combining road and off-road routes to challenge runners of all levels.
Experience a diverse range of workouts, including hill repeats, fartlek, lactate threshold, pyramid and interval training. These sessions are designed to improve your cardiovascular fitness, increase your endurance, enhance your speed and stamina, and refine your running technique. Gain the tools and guidance to achieve your running goals with BADGERS.
Whether you're a beginner looking to build confidence and run your first 5k, or an experienced runner aiming to achieve your next personal best, our Tuesday evening sessions provide the perfect training ground.
Our friendly and supportive coaches will guide you, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience while you connect with other runners and enjoy the camaraderie of a supportive community.
Join us every Tuesday evening!
To cater to runners of all abilities, we divide our group into three pace groups: A (fastest), B, and C. Whether you're aiming for a new personal best or simply enjoying the outdoors, you'll find a group that matches your fitness level. Sessions typically cover distances between 3 and 7 miles, offering a solid workout without overwhelming new runners.
Our experienced coaches and run leaders, all DBS checked, guide each session. They'll provide expert advice, motivation, and ensure you're running safely and effectively.
This group is for any runner aged 12 and over who can comfortably run 5k (3 miles) continuously.
Guests Runners
Guest runners can attend for a maximum of 4 sessions in a 12 month period.
