Training
On Mondays we meet in main reception at the National Water Sports Centre at 6.45 to run at 7.
​​
​​There are usually groups that run at 7.30, 8.00, 8.30 and 9.00 mile paces. There is also the steady paced group which runs at the pace of the slowest runner.​
To join a club run, you need to be able to run 5 miles continuously.​​
​​
Look out for the duty runner who will help you find a group to join!
​
This autumn, we're running structured Thursday night sessions at 7pm, starting October 2nd.
We’ve put together a varied programme of hills, intervals and tempo sessions to help build fitness before Track returns. These sessions are open to all members and all paces - whether you’re training for road, cross-country, or just want to improve fitness as part of a group.
Meeting point:
- Usually at The Brewhouse (Trent Bridge/Embankment corner) — free parking on the road or in their car park.
- On three evenings when Forest play at home in Europe, we’ll instead meet at The Gamston Lock - 2nd October, 23rd October and 27th November.
What to bring & expect:
- Sessions include warm-up, main set, and cool down.
- Head torch, hi-vis, and warm clothing recommended.
- Training will be either:
- along the lit tramline (with a car parked at Aldi to store kit), or
- on the Bridgford Escalator hills (Harrow/Eton Road).
- Afterwards, we’ll head back to the pub for refreshments.
If you’d prefer a social run, club members are welcome to form groups from the same meeting point. A duty runner will be there to help coordinate.​
​All runners should wear suitable high-viz clothing during dark winter nights, and if possible, also wear a headtorch / body torch.​
​
You're welcome to try us for a few weeks before joining.​
