Notes: (i) the advertised times are when we aim to set off. Runners typically arrive at the venue anything up to 15 minutes before this time, in order to socialise, find out more about the sessions which are taking place, listen to announcements, check the club noticeboard, and so on; (ii) members taking part in a training session prior to competing in a race (mid-week or weekend) should seek the advice of the coach conducting the session in order to identify the most appropriate training level; (iii) please appreciate our coaches - without them, we wouldn't have any training sessions! (iv) All training sessions start from Carmel RC College, which is located on the Headlands, Darlington. Changes to previously posted information are highlighted in red. Circuit Training takes place every Monday evening 7.30pm – 8.30pm in the school gym. Circuit training is a type of interval training in which strength exercises are combined with endurance/aerobic exercises, combining the benefits of both a cardiovascular and strength training workout. 'Circuit' means a group of activities /'stations' positioned around the facility that are to be visited in rapid succession. The range of stations includes those comprising resistance equipment (free weights), as well as allocated spaces to do squat thrusts, pushups, jumping jacks, sit-ups, and other exercises. Each person should complete the activity in one station before they proceed to the next station. They then continue until they have passed through all stations once or twice as required, or until a certain time requirement has been met. Each session costs £1, this is to cover the cost of the school gym.
