It's almost time for OcTOPOfest2... Our already busy schedule just got a little more busier!!

We're heading up to the Fox House pub on Sunday 26th October for a 10km Scenic route of the Peak District where we will be touring over Totley Moor and White Edge. Not only that, you have the opportunity to try Topo's latest and greatest Vista and Ultraventure trail shoes to the test, the test being mud... lots of it!!

We will be meeting @ 9am, behind the bus stop at Fox House Pub so arrive for 8.45am so you have enough time to put some Topo Demo shoes on. We can't predict the weather so carry a spare layer and dress for the weather. After all of this, the pub will be open for some well deserved Coffee and/or brunch.

Who Fancies a run??

We are excited to share details about our upcoming interactive coached session, focusing on how interval training can significantly increase your running speed.

Interval training is often misunderstood, either seen as exclusive to elite runners or implemented ineffectively. This session aims to demystify interval training and demonstrate how you can maximize your training time for optimal race day speed development.
~ ~ ~
This session is perfect for anyone new to interval training or those who have already started but want to ensure their sessions are as effective as possible. We will cover:

~ Where to begin with interval training
~ Determining the correct pace for your intervals
~ The effectiveness of using heart rate for interval training
~ How much recovery is needed between intervals
~ The ideal number of intervals per session

Join me, Stuart, as I guide you through a complete coached interval session, from warm-up to cool-down.
~ ~ ~
Additionally, you'll have the opportunity to test out either the Topo Phantom or Atmos Road Running shoes and discover why they are becoming so popular.

This event is limited to 15 participants to ensure a personalised experience, so please book your place in advance to guarantee attendance. You can book your place via the link below.

We're excited to invite you to an exclusive evening focusing on maximizing your running training benefits through heart rate monitoring. This session will demystify heart rate training, making it more accessible and effective than you might imagine.

During the evening, we will cover:

* How to calculate your personalized training zones with greater accuracy than standard formulas.
* The specific training benefits of each heart rate zone and when to integrate them into your regimen.
* A clear explanation of LT1 (aerobic threshold) and LT2 (anaerobic threshold) running, along with the concept of double threshold days.
* How to effectively incorporate heart rate into your interval and repetition sessions.
* A discussion on whether racing to a specific heart rate is an effective strategy.

The session will conclude with a Q&A, and if time permits, we'll offer an opportunity to review your personal racing graphs in relation to your current training zones.

Your host, Stuart, brings over 30 years of experience coaching with heart rate, having guided athletes who have represented their nations. He has also collaborated with leading sports scientists to refine his expertise. Stuart continues to exclusively use heart rate in all his coaching, particularly with promising younger athletes.

This event is limited to 14 participants to ensure a personalised experience, so please book your place in advance to guarantee attendance. You can book your place via the link in below.
