MediaCityUK via Bridgewater Canal
Thursday 23rd May 2024, 6:30:pm
This week's group run will be the MediaCityUK via Bridgewater Canal route, starting from outside the Y Club at 6:30pm.
Different pace and distance groups will be available depending on numbers of attendees.
The full route is approximately 8 miles.
Session format
We meet at the Y Club reception at 6:30pm. After a quick warm up, the Captains will gather the group together for club notices, after which we’ll split into sub-groups before we head off on the run.
Each group will run at a different pace and will be led by a club member, so there should always be a pace group suited to you. The number of groups is flexible depending on the number of runners down on any particular night and the availability of people to lead a group, however we will try and provide the following pace groups:
- Group 1: 7.00 min / mile (4.20 min / km) +/- 30 secs
- Group 2: 7.30 min / mile (4.40 min / km) +/- 30 secs
- Group 3: 8.30 min / mile (5.20 min / km) +/- 30 secs
- Group 4: 9.30 min / mile (5.50 min / km) +/- 30 secs
- Group 5: 10 min / mile (6:10 min / km) +/- 30 secs
If you’re not sure which group to go in on your first visit, we'd advise starting off in Group 5 and try to work your way up to the next one!
Our routes are generally 6-8 miles (10-13km) but Group 5 will always run 10km or less.
