I have just taken up running after a lazy few years on the old exercise front.
I did the Great South Run and really enjoyed it and am now wanting to keep my interest in running and improve my times with a bit of speed work etc. To do this I think I need to be in a club, could anyone point me in the right direction for good clubs for relative beginners in the Chester area?

Stuart - check out this listing : http://www.runtrackdir.com/ukclubs/

That should give you a few ideas, which club was it organised the Chester Zoo 10k ?
Or just look out for club tops at the next race or just when you are running ?

I have just started running again and have been running on the treadmill in the gym 3 times a week as follows:
40 mins - easy run
40 mins - intervals - 10 x 30 seconds with 90 second inbetween and warm and cool down jog
40 mins - incline fast walk

How can I improve these workouts to get faster?
