It will be nice on Tuesday for outdoor running, but if you want to keep up with indoor speedwork with the group, meet downstairs on the west side of Barton Hall at 7:15, where we’ll do warmups before moving up to the track at 7:30.
Workout
With just a few days before the Strides of March (sign up soon!) track meet on March 16, we’ll focus on a workout aimed at improving psychological fitness for the race:
- 200m of strides to spread out the group
- 1000m at T pace
- 800m at I pace
- 600m at I pace
- 400m at R pace
- 200m at R pace
200m of recovery after each rep. The workout should be reasonable even for those with about 20 miles per week; if you’re a lot below that, perhaps drop the 1000m.
