Striders sessions have been continuing through the winter, although numbers have dropped on the mornings. Many people consider a 5am rising for a 5:30am group run to be a bit more than they are prepared to commit to during winter. Fair enough, the spoils after all go to those who count the cost. For those of us who were preparing for races continuing to train was a no brainer, and there is a higher satisfaction level to your accomplishements when they are off the back of a few months of cold, dark early mornings.
Tuesday mornings at 5;30am, Lake Samsonvale have continued, with a nucleus of 3 runners. We have kept off the tracks due to the darkness and we run a range of different routes along the road, averaging about 40min per run.
Tuesday nights have up to about 6 runners, meeting at Eatons Hill and doing a range of routes taking in Eatons Hill and sometimes Albany Creek. During summer this group will grow and we expect to split it up into two different groups, one fast one normal.
Thursday mornings have a nucleus of 2 and sometimes can reach up to 5. Hopefully our morning groups can grow in the summer.
