From intervals to threshold work to LSD, the schedule has structure and logic. It is not about stacking intensity blindly, but building fitness and habits step by step.





Pacers + grouped pacing, so training quality and accessibility can hold together.

Tuesday intervals in Yoyogi Park create space for speed stimulus, mechanics, and more structured quality work.

Thursday threshold work at the Imperial Palace builds sustainable output, rhythm control, and stronger race preparation.

Friday fun runs at the Palace bring back recovery and social energy, making them ideal for a weekly reset and for first contact with ERC.

Saturday daytime LSD sessions build aerobic base and endurance while letting the crew move together in wider Tokyo surroundings.

Saturday daytime newcomer runs at the Palace give first-timers a friendlier pace to meet ERC, learn the route, and get to know the crew.
These two locations are enough to map the club clearly. Yoyogi leans toward speed stimulus and warm-up space, while the Palace carries rhythm, structure, and iconic Tokyo identity.
The Imperial Palace is ERC's stable home base, holding Thursday threshold runs, Friday fun runs, and Saturday newcomer sessions. It combines Tokyo icon status with the training order ERC needs.
Yoyogi Park hosts Tuesday intervals with a more open, flexible atmosphere that suits sharper speed sessions and a lighter, faster breathing rhythm.
At ERC, pacers are not there just to stand in front for photos. They organize pace, grouping, safety, and the feel of the session. This version uses role-based pacer profiles, which can later be replaced with real names, photos, and pace details.
Leads and structures Tuesday Yoyogi interval sessions so each group understands warm-up, reps, and recovery flow.
Controls Thursday Palace threshold sessions so the group does not overcook the effort and the work stays truly sustainable.
Guides Friday fun runs so the week can end with lighter energy and first-time runners can ease into the crew.
Leads Saturday LSD groups and controls long-run rhythm so the longer effort stays stable from start to finish.
