Running Around 11-22-09

Race week is here. Go out there, have fun, and run fast! There will be no formal workout this week due the Thursday race, so we will not be meeting as a group. If you feel like you need to do something on Tuesday, I'll recommend a few 200s.

If you are not racing this week, then pick your favorite workout from the last month. See http://trackworkouts.blogspot.com/ for past workouts.

At this point in the season (after our peak race) we usually shift back to base training. Since we don't need a track for that, I was thinking it makes more sense to meet at Tom Black. It's a little more convenient, rest rooms are available, and there are more choices for running routes from there. If you have a strong preference for meeting at either West HS or Tom Black, please let me know.

Week 19 of 19 training for Autumnfest 8k (3 1/2 more training days) ... Now for the workout summary:

1. (optional) 3-4 x 200@R pace w/ 200m jog recovery. These should be super relaxed - really just long striders.

2. Striders TWO times this week. 4-6 x 100m
