TUESDAY INTERVAL SESSION 10 MARCH
Following a progressive warm up including the walk drill (keep practising)
the main set consisted of 6,5,4,3,2,1,30s with 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5, 1, 30s
recoveries. The group were instructed to start off running at their mile
pace for the 1st interval and then increase their effort throughout the
session to finish with a flat out 30 second effort at approximately 200m
pace. It was executed well and several runners were seen sprinting into
space during the 30 second effort to get a clear run for a flat out effort (as
advised!)
Matt Dyke assisted with the session this week, and took the lead for the
cool down and stretches.
The huge group of juniors ran 8 X 400m reps, at race pace. It was great to
see them training in NTC kit.

Letter from the secretary of Parogan Swimming Club:
I am writing on behalf of the Parogon Swimming Club. We are a small club
based at Newcastle under Lyme school swimming pool. We have been
established since just after the Second World War and believe we can offer
something unique to our members.
I see that you offer swim sets at Trentham, but we would be able to offer
your members something different in that with membership they would
have access to the pool for 5 sessions a week to swim as they like and on 3
other occasions we run coached swimming sets, purely fitness based. We
enter open water events and have just set up a new junior water polo
session.
We already have shared members in Ed Cross and Neil Oliver and I am sure
they will give us a good testimonial!
We have an annual subscription fee, payable either one go or in two
instalments on production of a post dated cheque. As we are now into the
year a pro rata rate would be charged to any new members. For a full
paying adult this would be £130, or two instalments of £65 covering
membership from 1st April until the end of December. Reduced rates for
students and under 18s.
Would it be possible for some sort of publicity to go out to your members
on our behalf as we are constantly attempting to increase membership to
ensure that the club maintains sustainability. For more information please
see www.parogon.com or follow the Facebook link at the bottom of this
email.
In the first instance any people interested would be able to come and have
a try.
Many thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,
Ian Cartwright
Hon Secretary

Jordan Nixon raced on Saturday 14 March for
Staffordshire Schools in the English Schools
Athletic Association Cross Country
Championships at Witton Park Blackburn. He
was running for the Junior Boys and finished
236 in a time of 13 min 34 sec for 3.6km race
in a field of over 340 runners. He was the 3rd
Staffordshire runner to finish out of the team
of 8. Another great experience for him in a
National Event.
SATURDAY GROUP RIDES 14 MARCH
There has been a few sickness bugs around this week threatening to affect the
group rides on Saturday, and 2 of our leaders unfortunately had to cry off.
Jacqui Smith stood in for Chrissie as lead for the steady group cycling 50 miles
in total and took a cafe stop at Marton which was very busy. There were 9 of
them in the group including two new riders to the steady group.
Helen led the development group (despite not feeling very well herself!) on a
28m ride with a café stop at Dagfields
Paul was due to lead the fast group on a hilly ride but instead the group (also 9
in number) rode out to Henbury for a 60m loop.
SUNDAY RUN 15 MARCH
There were 2 good sized groups meeting at 8 and 9 o’clock for our steady runs.
At 8 o’clock there was a choice of 5 or 6m group.
At 9 o’clock there was a choice of a 5m or 9m steady run or a 3-4m loop
including some plyometrics training.
The beauty of having such a large group is there is a wide variety of ability and
therefore always somebody to run with.
