Tuesday Track workout

Hey Everyone,
My apologies for updating the site late. Had a busy day.

Congrats to all who finished Musselman over the weekend!

I know we are all used to the heat, but its going to be another hot one tomorrow, so please bring enough water! This week we are taking it long and focusing on pacing. I think you will find this workout a good challenge.

Warmup: Jog to track, 2 laps drills + strides

Main Set: 800 -1200-1200-1600-400-400

Below is a breakdown of rest and sample paces for an intermediate runner. You can adjust accordingly, but really try to focus on feeling out your pace for these longer intervals. It will really help on race day! The last two 400s are to see how you can push it when tired. If you are new to the track or coming off an injury, take the last 400s at 10k pace.
