Wed Track

Since it rained last week and only one person was motivated enough to get to the track, we’re going to repeat last week’s workout tomorrow morning. No excuses this time (including from me) since it will be 50 degrees with no rain!

Warmup: Jog to track, 1 lap + drills
Set 1: 3 x 200, 6 x 100
Set 2: 6 x 100, 3 x 200
Set 3: 3 x 200, 6 x 100
Set 4: 6 x 100, 3 x 200

We’ll run everything at mile pace. Rest will be 30s between 200s, 15s between 100s, and 60s after each set. And in between the first and second part of each set we’ll take 30s.

Meet at 9th & Park at 6:00am or at the track for a 6:15am start.
