Saturday 24th January - Tour of Bollington


The start
On a bright, cold and breezy morning 24 brave runners came along to experience the delights of Bollington and Kerridge.

We ran for approx 4.7 miles with extra distance added to the Garmins/ mobile phone apps of those who looped back.

We set off towards Neil's Hill via the Middlewood, increasing the effort level with a fartlek session to increase the heart rate.
Once at Neil's Hill, we then did some hill reps and Wendy made good use of her shiny new whistle. Everyone worked very hard and put maximum effort in when running up the hill.

We then set off back to the Skate Park via the canal , all of which was downhill or flat, which was a relief to those tired legs after the speed work and hill reps that they had endured.
This was a tough session, both in terms of distance and effort, well done everyone !
