Wednesday Practice

Let's work on better coordination of timing so neither the indoor or outdoor warm-up group is standing around waiting for the workout to start. Let's shoot for 7:00 sharp to start the actual work-out.

Outdoor warm-up group that means we will start promptly at 6:30. We'll be back in by 6:55 so you have 5 minutes to change clothes and get ready. Indoor warm-up group you can start whatever time you want but I would time your warm-up to finish just a few minutes before 7.

We'll be doing some tempo intervals.

We still have some spots for Yoga on Saturday if anyone is interested. It starts at 11:45. We'll start our Saturday morning run a little later so we can go stright from the run to Yoga.

Indoor warm-up group you can start whatever time you want but I would time your warm-up to finish just a few minutes before 7.

The plan for indoors for the next 6-7 weeks is to do tempo runs, tempo paced intervals along with a tiny bit of speedwork mixed in. On weekends I encourage you to add a long run with a pattern of backing off on distance every 3rd week. The tempo and long runs combined will put you in good shape for the upcoming racing season and our outdoor work-outs starting in March.

We may try to head outdoors for a tempo run on an upcoming Wednesday night but we'll take the weather and the safety of the runners into consideration.

Wednesday Night - We Start Anew

Meet at LW East LaGrange Road at Colorado Ave. We'll start the warm-up at 6:30.
You have an option to warm-up inside or do 3 miles on the road. Dress Accordingly.

Our indoor workouts will be focused on tempo pace, with a very small amount of speed mixed in. Of course there will be the ever-popular plyometrics and leg drills.

Yoga for Runners - Anyone interested in doing a Yoga for Runners Class at 11:00 AM on Jan 30 in Orland Park ? If we fill the studio it will be $12/person. Let me know via the blog or in-person on Wednesday. Stride length is the first attribute to decrease on aging runners -this class might help slow that decline down a bit.
