With many of us having run yesterday’s first PGXC race on Sunday, we’re going to stick with a fairly simple workout: Pond Loops. We’ll start on Arboretum Road by the parking area, run a hard pickup around the ponds back to Arboretum Road, and then jog back to the start. Slower runners can try taking the shortcut in front of the ponds or across the bridge to see if that makes the amount of pickup time approximate the faster runners’ times. During the jog back to the start, we’ll regroup. We’ll do 6-8 repeats, depending on your weekly mileage.
Any questions? See you Tuesday at 6 PM.
PS: We meet at the parking area in the bowl of the F. R. Newman Arboretum at the Cornell Botanic Gardens. The workouts are free and open to all FLRC members, but everyone must sign an online waiver once for 2021. It’s the same as for the FLRC group runs, so if you’ve signed that one this year, no need to do so again. If you aren’t fully vaccinated, please wear a mask whenever you aren’t running. And get vaccinated!
