Organiser's Description
Aberdeen Beach Promenade Training Session
This outdoor endurance and speed-based session on Aberdeen Beach Promenade is designed to develop pacing, aerobic capacity, and teamwork. Using the natural out-and-back route, participants will build fitness through structured intervals while maintaining awareness of pacing and recovery.
Session Structure
Warm-Up
Participants will begin with a progressive warm-up along the promenade, incorporating light jogging, mobility work, and dynamic stretches.
Main Set 1: Variable Distance Intervals
- 6 minutes, 4 minutes, 2 minutes (out & back format)
- Each effort is performed as an out-and-back run, ensuring all participants start and finish at the same location.
- Recovery: 90 seconds between each repetition
This set encourages athletes to manage pacing across longer and shorter efforts, developing aerobic endurance and control.
Main Set 2: Short Intervals
- 8 × 45 seconds effort
- Recovery: 75 seconds between reps
These shorter intervals increase intensity and focus on speed endurance.
Team Activity: 3-Person Relay
Participants will be grouped into teams of three to complete a relay challenge.
Cool Down
The session will finish with a gradual cool-down jog transitioning into stretching.
