Jerry Nelligan graciously agreed to host the team after practice on Wednesday. He lives at 13535 TallGrass Trail in Orland Park.
Meet at Jerry's house at 6:30. The workout will be a progressive 4 mile run with each mile a little quicker than the last. Do not start out too fast.
Jerry will post the details about food & logistics.
Marathoners - To achieve your marathon goal you need to run your long runs at 10-30 seconds per mile slower than your goal race pace. As well as some of the miles during these long runs at Marathon Pace. I also believe you need 5-6 runs at 18-21 miles to run a strong marathon. This has been challenging this summer due to the heat. However, there are no shortcuts or miracles in running. If you are not doing this in practice you will be unable to do it on race day. So you have 2 options - 1)lower your race goal. 2) try to get your long runs in very early or late or even on a treadmill(but not too many) so you don't have to fight the heat. If you have any training questions let me know.
