Tuesday Nighters. Merrick Centre. 1830.
Weather is stupid again this week so we will stick to roads and pretend we are in Egypt with this little pyramid session

1) Jog to New Minnigaff
2) Warm ups
3) Pyramid intervals following the route round New Minnigaff below:
2 mins, 3 mins, 4 mins, 5 mins, 4 mins, 3 mins, 2 mins hard effort with 2 minute jogged recoveries between each effort.
The loop is about 0.9 miles so work at your own pace and encourage each other as you go!
For returning runners and those knackered from recent races you can lower the pyramid (e.g. 2,3,4,3,2) or just stop when you have done enough.

Lovely night tonight at the track. The sun shone on us as we completed perfect pyramids worthy of the Egyptians 😀☀️🏃🏻‍♀️

Unfortunately we've been unable to return the full Mull of Galloway Trail Marathon to the calendar due to course logistics. Runner and volunteer safety always remain our priority. We remain hopeful and highly optimistic this event will come back soon.

That was a nice one tonight. A bit easier on the chest than last week but probably a better all round stamina and fitness builder. Heart rate zones targeted and maintained over 61 minutes of loops around the very lovely Penninghame Pond. Well done all.

18/05/2026

Tuesday Nighters. Merrick Centre. 1830.
Tonight we will meet as usual and then car-share out to Penninghame Pond where we will do loops at intervals according to heart zones (or effort if you don't have a fancy watch which tells you what to do). If you want to program your watch the session will be;
5 mins zone 1
5 mins zone 2
18 mins zone 3
5 mins zone 1
18 zone 3
10 zone 1
It's a long session so this includes warm up and cool down jogs.
If you have trail shoes or ones you don't mind getting muddy, wear those.
Who's in?

Just going to leave these out there. See you next week.

Tuesday Nighters. Merrick Centre. 1830.
Yazz wasn't quite right because this evening we will be going up, coming down and then going back up again. Yup, it's a hill session.
After a nice, long warm up jog we will ascend Corsbie Road at high effort level 10 times with a 2 minute rest/jog back to start in between each interval. We will have another easy cool down jog afterwards.
The effort for this session is short but intense. It promises to be a lot of fun. So, who's coming?
