Tuesday & Thursday Workouts

Tuesday night we will run a warmup down to Williams Boulevard and then do some quarter mile repeats (4-6) followed by a cool down back to the shelter. KT Mac's Back.on.Track blog has an excellent resource for calculating your pace.

Know Your Pace

Keep in mind the suggestion from the McMillan Site "I always suggest that during your first workouts, just shoot for the slow end of the range. Training too fast, too soon is the quickest way to failure."

For Thursday night let's try a 4.5 mile route outside of the park. Sunset is 6:15, so it will be starting to get dark when we are coming back so wear your safety flashing lights.

Thursday's 4.5 miler

Start time for both nights is 5:30 PM at the Washington Park Shelter.

starting earlier (6:30am)is fine with me. Dave and I will not be able to attend this Saturday's run due to being out of town all weekend. So have a good run all you frosty toes.

I do like the idea of getting an early start. However, please keep in mind that some in the group travel from out of town to participate in the Frost Toes group. Given that, I'd prefer leaving the start time at 7:00 a.m.

With the cool weather, I don't see any reason to go any earlier than 7:00. If it were summer, I would understand but it's fall and I like my sleep. The out of town people like to sleep also.
