It's mission seems more important than ever right now, as people everywhere attempt to stay active and healthy. During these challenging times, many people are turning to running as a solution to help release anxiety, gain perspective, cope with cabin fever, and keep up wellbeing

@Officaljatman @UKRunChat @RunDaddyRun16 @runr_uk @eventsatw @EssexAArunning I work there, and this was during an airport closure 👍

[Coach Mike Edwards @CoachMikeEdwar1]

Where is the strangest or most unique place you’ve ever run? On Wednesday @RunDaddyRun16 ran 10 miles on an airport runway ✈️ @UKRunChat @runr_uk @eventsatw @EssexAArunning

@CoachMikeEdwar1 @UKRunChat @RunDaddyRun16 @runr_uk @eventsatw @EssexAArunning Through a derelict Battersea power station during Men's Health Survival of the Fittest in 2012. We even had to wear hard hats for that section of the race.

@photopeted @UKRunChat @RunDaddyRun16 @runr_uk @eventsatw @EssexAArunning That sounds superb, apart from being shot at 😬

@CoachMikeEdwar1 @UKRunChat @RunDaddyRun16 @runr_uk @eventsatw @EssexAArunning Back in the 90's I used to go to Beijing on business and used to run around Tianamen Square which was a bit surreal, also I lived in Riyadh and regularly got rocks etc thrown at me when out running, even got shot at once!!! thankfully missed

SUNDAY SESSIONS | SPRINTS

[Coach Mike Edwards @CoachMikeEdwar1]

Give this a go, and let us know how you get on 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

#coachmikeedwards #sundaysessions #sprints #beatthejanuaryblues

[Coach Mike Edwards @CoachMikeEdwar1]

Ensure you get your recovery between each set, regardless of how you feel, as this will be essential as you get towards the end of the session.

This is a short sharp session, which will get the heart rate pumping. Don’t forget to cool down and stretch afterwards.

[Coach Mike Edwards @CoachMikeEdwar1]

Starting at one end, simply sprint at your maximum till you reach the other end. Give yourself a one minute standing recovery, turn around, and sprint back to the start.

Aim to repeat this 8/10 times.
