Welcome back to a new year, and a new semester of running and fun with NTNUI Friidrett! We have already had our regular running schedule back on track for a week, but it is never too late to join us for some exercise and fun activities. So, whether you are a former member of the club, or brand new to running, feel free to join us for the coming days. Since it’s a new year you probably have some resolutions, and we hope to help you fulfill them with a week of training and fun!

Due to corona and the weather, changes are due to happen, so make sure to keep an eye on the Facebook event for the latest updates: https://fb.me/e/1COe8qdfx

Anyway, here is our plan for the week:
Monday – Hour jog
Our regular Monday jog is easy for anyone to join, as we have different distances suitable for any level of runner, ranging from 6km to 12km. Meet up outside of the main building at Gløshaugen at 18:30 to find your distance and join the run.

Tuesday – Morning jog
Seize the day by getting up bright and early in the morning for a refreshing run. Same as Monday we are meeting in front of the main building, but today we will go at 07:00 instead. Depending on the turnout we will see if we need to split into more than one group.

Wednesday – Intervals
Part of our regular weekly schedule, we meet at 18:30 outside of Spektrum at Øya to split into middle or long distance intervals. This week’s distances are TBD.

Thursday – Run-N-Swim
A long standing tradition in the club is going for a cool swim after a good workout, and even though we mostly go from spring and throughout the summer, this week we will brave the January temperatures of the fjord. Meet up outside of the main building again at 18:30 for a jog down to Korsvika for a quick dip in the waters. Running is mandatory, swimming is optional. From there you can join us for a run back to Gløshaugen, or grab a bus from Lade.

Friday – Bring A Friend Friday
Hjalmar is one of our most socially active members, as the club’s mascot. Once every month he joins or hill intervals to offer bananas for any new members of the running group, anyone who recruits someone new, or makes a new friend at practice. Join us at the main building at 16:30 for a quick warmup jog before hill intervals in the Rema1000 hill, and be rewarded with a banana.

Saturday – TBD
We are hoping for better weather towards the weekend, and will update the plan as we get a clearer picture of the long term forecast. Skiing, outdoor fun and games, or BBQ is on the table so make sure to check back with our next update.
