Spring 5k Masterclass – Progress Update

Last Thursday night saw the first progress check for the Dash for Fitness Spring 5k Masterclass, in association with HAC, with 8 of the Masterclassers taking part in our 5k Training Race.

It was an incredible night with every runner beating their baseline time, six of them beating their interim goal and, astonishingly, four of those six achieving their end of programme goal (so they will now get new targets!). Very many congratulations to: Beth, Cliff, Fiona, Julia, Kate, Lisa, Tiggy, Victoria.

Congratulations also to Ian, who achieved his 5k progress check time at Monday night’s FREE Dash for Fitness Running group, and to Carey who beat her end of programme goal at a Parkrun.

It’s possibly unfair to single out anyone from Thursday night but I have to call out Tiggy’s performance. She started the Masterclass with a baseline time of 40:00 (her 5k time of a year ago when she last ran) but, after 3 track sessions and diligent completion of homework, achieved a 5k time of 34:04 on Thursday. Wow!
