The last weekend in summer!
Now you can focus on some Fall races! We have had a mild Summer but I always enjoy training (at least running) in the Fall.
New Website!
Mauricio has taken over the website! Please check it out and send him the praise he deserves!
He will also accept suggestions.
Also, please send in any races and training sessions you have upcoming so he can post it!
Send in your pictures too!
How about a Ruby's Run next Friday, 9/25? You know the drill - leave a car at Ruby's at 4:40am, meet at the Y at 5:00am.
Let Marilyn know if you can make it.
Reminder - we still do Sunday 6 @ 6. Meet at HHS at 6:00am to run 6 miles - more, or less, if you want.
YASSO 800's - I'm ready to start these up again - Meet at HHS track on Wednesday mornings at 5:00 for track workout.
What's a YASSO 800?
The theory is you should be able to run a Marathon in Hours:Minutes what you can consistently run an 800 (2 laps) in Minutes:Seconds.
So, if you want to run a 3 hour 45 minute Marathon, you would run your 800s in 3 minutes 45 seconds.
The key is to be able to build up to doing 10 of these.
I suggest you start with 2 and add one each week.
Note that you still need to do your long runs!
Harrier Run
Soon! I don't want to mess with all your Marathon schedules! Another good reason to update Mauricio!
Send me your suggested dates / times / themes / beverage of choice!
