Training Etiquette

Update: Tuesday training takes place over the Winter months in Blenheim Park, usually near the main car parks or on suitable hills, provided these are not in use for a Blenheim event. Meet just inside the Town Gate and jog as a group warm up. For safety, follow the directions of the coach leader, Roger Bradley. The sessions might vary depending on the weather, road conditions, Blenheim Palace function etc. Always wear reflective hi-vis during the darkness hours in Blenheim Park, and preferably a head torch or body light. Although the roads are private, be aware of possible estate traffic or visitors’ vehicles. Lamps will be set out before the session to mark the training course. Any questions about training, please feel free to ask, Roger Bradley.

Juniors: The club does not have a junior section with the necessary safeguarding to accommodate under 18s at training sessions without parents/guardians being present. Children of members are welcome to join sessions under the following conditions:

  • a parent/guardian needs to be present and responsible.
  • this means being aware of how your child is managing the session and working at a level and volume appropriate to their age and ability.
  • it also means ensuring your child understands the session and any safety instructions that apply – e.g. keep to one side, watch out for other runners, etc.

Finally, all of us at a session have a responsibility to look out for everyone else there of all ages.
