Training

Seniors Sessions

Tuesdays 6.30pm

On Tuesdays there's a choice between interval training with our coaches or just going for a run.

Sessions vary from 200m to 5k over a six week period, held at various locations around the Lytham YMCA. See the noticeboard in the YMCA or the calendar of events on the website front page for session details.

We try to keep to a regular schedule but weather or races important to the club may result in last minute changes. The following are examples of the sessions we organise.

Training Options
Activity	Location
500m/1000m	Bellingham Road
1200m/5k Time Trial	Prom (Windmill)
Miles	Park View
400m	Prom (Yachting Club)
600m	Prom or YMCA Field
800m	Prom
Pyramid	YMCA Field

Sessions on the prom start at an appropriate place so as to run to the flag pole and back. Always run anti-clockwise round the flag pole.

For an up to date schedule of what we have planned see the calendar on the Home Page.

Thursdays 6.30pm

On Thursdays runs are between 3 - 8 miles, catering for all standards and abilities. Beginners will be accompanied by experienced runners and shorter runs can be arranged if required.

Thursdays 6.00am

Meeting at the shelter at the end of Granny's Bay for a structured session.

Join the club, or not too sure? Or maybe just visiting the area?

If you are new to running or the area and are considering joining a club but not too sure if it's for you, don't worry, come along and see if you like it. There won't be any pressure for you to join the club on your first day, though obviously we'd be happy for you to join if you decide running is your thing.

Or maybe you're just visiting the area on holiday or for work? Come and join us, you will almost certainly find someone to run with of similar abilities most nights.

Where we meet

We meet at Lytham YMCA in the bar area, accessed through the YMCA main entrance or directly from the second entrance round the side.

The Mondays beginners group meets in the YMCA lobby.

Changing facilities and lockers are situated off the lobby, straight ahead from the main (first) entrance with further lockers in the corridor leading to the bar.

We return to the bar to socialise after each run. If you are coming to the Club for the first time you may wish to contact a member of the Committee for more information about the Club.
