TRAINING

As Autumn draws in a reminder to everyone to bring some extra clothes to training.  On Saturdays this should include a Spare pair of clean shoes and on Tuesdays include a reflective running bib.  On all sessions, please bring waterproofs, a jumper and some leggings or tracksuit bottoms (with shorts underneath).  You can always take them off if you are hot but you cannot invent them if you are cold!

The juniors meet at the following times:
(your should restrict yourselves to 3 sessions a week maximum, including races).

Saturdays from 9.30am to 11am at Lockyers School, Corfe Mullen.  The club’s advanced group of about 35 meet at this time and do their sessions, assisted by the club's squad of eleven junior coaches working in pairs (and a three).

Saturdays from 10.45am to 12noon at Lockyers School, Corfe Mullen.  This is the clubs's developmental group and under 11's main training time.  Everyone meets and warms up together and then splits into event groups, or games etc.  The advanced group warm down with the developmental group and them some stay and assist the coaches and act as mentors.

Tuesdays from 6.45pm to 8.00pm meet at Corfe Mullen Recreation Ground (April to Mid September) and Broadstone Sports Centre (mid September to Mid April).  This is a speed-endurance session for over 11s and can be quite hard work.  Highly recommended for those who wish to improve.

Wednesdays between 7pm and 8pm from Broadstone Leisure Centre only suitable for older juniors able to run 6 - 10 miles.  Only recommended for 14 or 15 year olds.

Thursdays between 6.45pm and 8.00pm at Ashdown Track.  Meet at 6.45pm or so to warm up.  We use the track between 7pm and 8pm for sprinting, middle distance and high jump.  Once a month pole vault training with specialist coach.

Sundays occasional hurdling sessions at Ashdown Sports Centre.  Also available for those in the under 17's who want to train at that time.
