Tuesday Night, 5:30, at the Track.  This week workout is a Timed Mile.  This is when we can run against the clock and then use that information as a measurement tool.

We will run a mile warm-up and then do a mile of strides before the Timed Mile.

See ya!

Tuesday, November 14, 5:30 p.m. at the track.

Here is our workout:

4 x 400's as a warm-up
4 x 400's with srides
4 x 200 with 200 recovery
4 x 400 as a cool-down.

Total laps:  16
Total miles:  4

Since we are beginning our new fall track workout season this workout is designed to prepare us for faster stuff.

4 laps for warm-up
8 laps of strides
4 laps for cool-down

Total 16 laps or four (4) miles.


For those new to working out with me, strides are short burst of speed of about 15 to 20 seconds and then a cool-down period of about 45 seconds.  On the track we push ourselves; focusing on form, foot plant, etc, starting on the straight-a-way at the first stadium light pole and finishing at the next stadium light pole, then a cool-down around the corners and back at it on the next set of lights.

Our new Fall/Winter Track workouts will begin on Tuesday, October 17 at 5:30 pm.

Our focus will be to improve our running form and maintain our running fitness through the "Dark Months" that are coming.

I will post the workouts later this week.
