Mara Yamauchi, GB's 2nd fastest ever female marathon runner, is visiting Cornwall to give a talk about marathon training on 19th June (see previous news)
We are ALSO delighted that she has now offered to hold a training session for up to 25 Cornwall AC runners at Carn Brea track on Saturday 20th June at 11am.
The session will involve an easy jog warm-up, followed by some dynamic stretching and drills, then the main running session and finally a warm-down of static stretching and easy jogging.
For the running section, to fit with a mixed-ability group, the intervals will be run to time (not distance), so that everyone gets the same recovery. The session will take about 90 mins.
This is only for fully paid up Cornwall AC members and places are strictly limited to 25 people. To be fair to everyone, places will be allocated by names being drawn from a hat (rather than on a first come first served basis). If you would like to have your name entered in the draw, please email Emma Stepto on stella_uk_1970@yahoo.co.uk, or text 07717 377581 or message/FB.
The draw will take place on Saturday 13th, so that you will have a week’s notice, if you get a place.
There is no charge for the session, other than you will have to pay the £3.50 fee at main reception to use the running track.
This is a really valuable opportunity, so I hope there will be lots of interest…and that we will have a nice dry morning!!
