Experience Sharing on Long-run Training

By Ir Charles So

This long-run training experience sharing was held in the evening on 16 January 2019 at Shatin Sports Ground.  In this training session, the participants were divided into different groups for training of different intensities.  After warm-up exercise, the participants had a training of running for 1km and then slow jogging for 200m for 8 cycles.  A relatively higher heart beat rate had to be maintained throughout the exercise for endurance training.  Finally, the participants run 9.6 km in total.

Our voluntary coach, Mr Cheung Chung Wai, is a HKAAA-approved running coach and he offered expertise to individuals to release their potentials and to improve their running gesture for long-run.  He also provided professional advice for those participants who are considering to participate in Marathons.

In this event, all the participants had a 2-hour training filled with sweat and joy. This event was very informative and fruitful and greatly enhanced the participants’ knowledge on long-run. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Mr Cheung Chung Wai and Ir Thomas Tam for their contribution to this event.
