Thursday Track Work

Runners,

This week there is one workout to follow. If necessary, newbies can do 4-5 1200’s instead of the 6.

MEET: 7:30pm @ 11th and Park

——————————

WARM-UP: Jog to track, stretch, strides

MAIN SET:
TEMPO RUN: Remember your tempo pace is one that you could maintain for up to an hour if it were a race.

6 x 1200 on 45-seconds rest
**The 45-second rest will be enough to give a psychological break without letting your heart-rate totally recover.

COOL DOWN: Jog home

APPROX. TOTAL TIME: 65 minutes

LavaMan

Hey Everyone,

If you’re looking for a good sprint in June, jsmultisport has one scheduled for June 20th in Lavallette, NJ (approximately 90 mins south).  The “LavaMan” course is fast and flat with a relatively calm swim in Barnegat Bay.  It is well organized and has great support.  Afterwards, you can scope out some of the hangouts of your favorite fist-pumpters from MTV’s Jersey Shore in Seaside Heights or enjoy a nice brunch at the Crabs Claw Inn.  Check it out:
