Brussels Runners - Tuesday Intervals
We do cycles of 4-6 weeks, with a progressive load, and a recovery week at the end of the cycle.
Session:
* 10 - 20’ warm up (easy run and drills)
* Core session (ie. 6x5' - 2' recovery)
* Cool down
We run together during Warm-up, and cool down and tey to regroup during recovery time. Paces are not imposed (everyone runs at his/her own pace) given the intensity suggested.
Notes:
It's NOT required to have an activity tracker or smart watch to be able to follow the session, as I'll be giving signals with a whistle.
Intervals training is not advised for total beginners. To have an idea, the average pace at the warm up is around 5'45"/km-6'15"/km so this pace should feel very comfortable

By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organizers from any responsibility and liability in all claims. As the participation is strictly voluntary and you freely choose to join, it is the responsibility of individuals participating to ensure that they are fit enough and have adequate coverage to protect themselves.

What's up Friends! 👋
Let's break the ice again! 😂 ! 🧊✨ This time let's try after work when the rink should be less busy🤞
📍 Time & place: Feel free to join at any time. For the ones who can make it at 18:30 we'll meet inside the Posseidon ice rink in the skate rental room.
❄️ The idea: Skate as long as you like (rink closes at 10pm). For the ones who get tired (of falling) we can meet at the cafeteria around 19:30 to recharge with some drinks and snacks.
🤑 Entry fee (cash or card):
13 EUR with skate rental
9 EUR if you bring your own skates
💁♂️ good to know:
Consider arriving 15 mins earlier - getting a ticket takes time when there’s a line! ⏳
Bring a 50 cent coin for a locker if you need one (non-refundable)
Picture ID is required for skate rental.
Bring your handgloves🧤- you will need 'em!
More info: https://www.skate-poseidon.be/
