Irene 10km Open Race Walking Grand PrixA resounding success.
We had a fantastic and enthusiastic turnout on a cool and chilly morning although the chill did not affect the enthusiasm of the helpers and the anticipation was electric. The masters started at eight o’clock and turned out a new RSA Record for Kevin Philips (CGA) in the first event on our new course! Unfortunately not an IAC or at least an AGN athlete but I promise we are hard at work on that!!! The individual and personal competition was intense and athletes chased each other with gusto but in all, good sportsmanship and camaraderie prevailed on the day. The spirit of the day was impressive and long after the last bell tolled, debriefs and good hearted banter were heard. The organiser had to chase the walkers and spectators home.......! The day was a resounding success. |

Running Tip of the Month
|
Increase weekly training distance by no more than 10 percent per week
Joe Henderson, the first editor of Runner’s World, and Joan Ullyot, M.D., author of several running books, first popularised the 10-percent prescription in the 1980s. “I noticed that runners who increased their training load too quickly were incurring injuries” says Dr. Ullyot. The Exception: If you’re starting at single-digit weekly mileage after a layoff, you can add more than 10 percent per week until you’re close to your normal training load. |
