The training sessions are designed to prepare you to complete Helsingborg Marathon or HOKA Helsingborg Half Marathon, with the sessions gradually increasing in both distance and intensity as race day approaches.<\/p>\n<p>We recommend that you\u2019re able to run approximately 10 k at a pace of 5:30\u20136:00 min\/k to get the most out of the training sessions and programme. If you\u2019re unsure whether Runners Club is right for you, we\u2019d love for you to come and try a couple of sessions completely free of charge.<\/p>\n<p>The warm-up and cool-down are run at approximately 5:45\u20136:00 min\/k, while you choose your own pace for the intervals, hill sessions and so on.<\/p>\n<p>Email us at <a href=\"mailto:hello@hbgm.se\"><u>hello@hbgm.se<\/u><\/a> and we\u2019ll arrange for you to come and try a couple of sessions completely free of charge!<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"faq_category":[28],"class_list":["post-930","avada_faq","type-avada_faq","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","faq_category-runners-club-eng"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_faq\/930","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_faq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/avada_faq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=930"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_faq\/930\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4638,"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_faq\/930\/revisions\/4638"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=930"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"faq_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/runnersclub.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq_category?post=930"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
