Set-up

Final repeat of the exact 2-mile course. Record times and present a simple before/after comparison to the squad after the session. Celebrate improvement publicly, address any concerns privately after training.

Coaching points

  • Compare all three test results — show the group the collective progress
  • Any player not faster than test one: private conversation about the block ahead
  • This run is light effort — no heroics the day before game one

Progressions

  • No progression — this is measurement, not training
  • Results inform who gets minutes early in the season from a fitness standpoint
