Saturday Wrap-up & Wednesday Practice

The runners of TT&T conquered the hills of Lemont Saturday morning. 13 Miles Overall. 4 of it was uphill. Remarkable efforts by everyone.

Wednesday we're moving outside. For the next 4 weeks we'll be at Centennial park in Orland Park for a mix of tempo runs, hill repeats and long intervals. These workouts will build more strength, improve our lactate thresholds and prepare us for the anaerobic intervals coming on the track in Mid April. Let's keep the momentum going we have been avering over 20 runners on the indoor track. New runners are always welcome.

Here are directions to Centennial Park

LaGrange Road to 153rd Street
West on 153rd Street to West Avenue
South on West Avenue to the 4-way stop (Fun Drive)
West into Centennial Park. Park to the west of the Water Park.

We'll do a warm-up at 6:30 and start the workout just before 7. This venue was chosen because we'll be able to providing challenging workouts for groups 1 & 2 while keeping everyone somewhat together.

From Carlos Viramontes - I wanted to offer a complimentary entry fee to anyone in the club who is interested in running the inaugral Wisconsin Marathon. It's to be held May 2 in Kenosha.

If you're interested let me know and I'll pass it on to Carlos.
