We’re back at Stewart Park for the rest of July. As always, all are welcome, though you should be running enough that 3–4 miles isn’t a problem. We meet at the bocce pits near the big pavilion starting at 6:15 PM, with warmups starting at 6:25 PM. Everyone needs to sign the waiver once for 2026, and if you’re coming regularly, be an FLRC member (there’s a free option).
We’ll return to the Bird Sanctuary loop this week for 6-8 repetitions of 3 minutes at I (5K) pace, followed by 2 minutes of easy pace recovery. The unusual part is that after you finish a fast rep, you’ll turn around and do the recovery in the other direction, backsliding on your progress around the 1-mile loop. Coupled with slightly staggered starts, this should ensure that everyone is constantly passing others in one direction or another, keeping it a group workout.
See you Tuesday!
