FAQs

Q: What is a typical interval workout?
A: The workout varies each week to keep things interesting. It will typically be either distance-based repeats (e.g., 400m or 800m efforts) or a pyramid session where the distance or time increases and then decreases. The specific workout will be explained during the pre-run briefing.
Q: Is this session suitable for beginners?
A: Absolutely! This is the perfect session for runners of any level. Because we use a repeating loop, everyone is in the same area. This format means you can run at your own pace without any pressure or worry about being left behind. It's a great way to meet the group.
Q: Do I need to know my target paces?
A: It's helpful, but not required. Reach out to the organiser during the briefing before the run, and we can work it out together.
Q: Is the workout based on time or distance?
A: It is usually based on distance, run on the 888m sheltered track that circles the National Stadium. However, the format can sometimes vary.
Q: How long does the session last?
A: Including the warm-up, briefing, main workout, and a cool-down, the entire session lasts about one hour.
Q: Is there a place to leave my bag?
A: Yes. Most runners leave their bags together by the side of the track. However, this area is unattended. For valuables, we strongly recommend using the paid lockers available at the Sports Hub. Lockers near the stadium cost approximately $6 for 6 hours of use.
Q: Are there toilets and water coolers nearby?
A: Yes, the Sports Hub is well-equipped. There are water coolers available near Gates 4 and 16, and toilets are also accessible.
Q: What happens if it rains?
A: We run on! The track is almost completely sheltered, so rain does not stop our session.
