Winter Track Training (Week 8)

We'll have our first track practice on January 21 @ 4:30 pm at the Fitness Center. Plan to meet that week on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, and on Wednesday and Friday mornings. Once we're back together we'll continue our base training, but eventually we'll set goals for racing indoors and outdoors and will adapt our training to fit the specific needs of individual events and race distances.

The weather is much better and there's no excuse now to not to put in some miles and get serious training done. Mileage for everyone should be at least 50 miles or more for the week. Please do 6-8 hill repeats at least once during the week along with the tempo run, as well as core strength training a couple times during the week.

Sun (1/12) Long Run (>70 minutes)

Monday 6-8 miles

Tuesday 7-8 miles w/ hills

Wednesday 9-11 miles

Thursday 7-8 miles w/ strength training

Friday 8-10 miles w/ 20:00 tempo

Saturday 5-6 miles or swim/bike w/ strength training
