Turbo Session
Leader:
Karen Townsin
Start Time:
6:45 pm
Start Location:
OMH
Description:
Turbo sessions are back! We are using the Dixon Suite in Old Mill Hall in Grove on Wednesday evenings.

The first block of 10 sessions begins on 7th October and ends on 16th December. Nb. There will be no session on 4th November as the hall is unavailable.

The hall is available from 6:30 to 8:30, but to accommodate those travelling from work we will start sessions at 7pm, so plenty of time to set up and warm up. Each session will and last for approx. 45 mins to 1 hour.

Please see the Turbo Sessions information page. There are some simple rules that we must abide by. Do not arrive at the sessions without reading these first.

Report:
A great turn out again on a blowy night but gale force gusts weren't going to cancel this ride!

A base building interval session with enough puff left during the recovery periods to have a natter. We must just be getting fitter!

We're over half way through now and I wanted to say a really big thank-you to everyone for making these sessions such a success. It's been a great team effort with everyone taking their part, whether that's been leading sessions or helping set up and clear away at the end. (clap)
The general feedback appears to be that we should go for another session after Xmas. I'll find out about hall availability and in the meantime, if anyone has any helpful feedback, please let me know.
