Speed Feedback Please

05/12/2008 by Dick.

Runners who take part in our Tuesday speed sessions may have noticed that the Coach in charge has a piece of paper known as a Session Planner . This Planner guides the Coach through the session, and has sections at the bottom for the Coach to record feedback from the athletes and the Coach’s evaluation of how well the session went.

We then analyse these last two aspects so that we can continue improving the sessions you take part in. Ideally the Coach will be able to ask for feedback at the end of each session when it’s fresh in people’s minds. But in the Link Road sessions for example, runners tend to finish at different times and then jog back to the Leis Ctre before the Coach has a chance to get feedback.

This happened at last Tuesday’s pyramid session, and Chris would appreciate if you could send him  any comments you have on cj.rees@yahoo.co.uk.

It would be very helpful In future if athletes could make a point of giving the Coach any helpful comments before running back to the Leis Ctre. We will also be usually providing a contact address with the Training Schedule in each month’s Wots On.

It’s also important for safety and practical reasons to let the Coach know if you leave the session before the end.
