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.

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.

On Wednesday January 27th, the moon will be nearly full. Sounds like a great opportunity for that night-time run at Swallow Cliff.

did I miss everyone? I was there at 9pm like you said and no one was there.

Be careful at Swallow Cliff after dark. I got a $25 parking ticket from the park ranger for not leaving before dusk. My car was still in the parking lot when they wanted to close the gates.
