    _______________________________________________________________*

    Great Job everyone that came out for the track workout. I am hoping you felt a little soreness in your legs the last few days. As hard as these workouts are they really do provide a lot of benefits. This Saturday we have another long run planne. We are starting in South Mission and heading into La Jolla. Hopefully ,we will get some coastal cloud cover and keep it a little cooler for all of us. See you in the morning.  

    Summer Night’s Track Meets

    If anyone is really looking to test their speed I have just the thing for you. There is weekly Track Meet that is put on by a local running group made up of the SD Track Club, Movin Shoes, etc.  They run 4-5 meets throughout the summer and are held on Wednesday nights in June, July & August.  There are a few left for this year.  Learn more: http://sandiego.usatf.org/Programs/Track---Field/Summer-Nights-Series.aspx

    If anyone decides to race at any of these meets please let us know. We will come out and cheer you on. Don’t forget to wear the Black Flag Shirt.

    Free Race Entry 
    Black Flag is also willing to cover your registration if you participate in the Aug 1st event. The process is easy; register for an event, run the event wearing your Black Flag Shirt and we will reimburse you for the cost of the event. A limit of 10 reimbursements will be given and will be given to the first people who registered.

    I did notice on the AFC website that a current list of Triple Crown runners is now posted.  If you’re doing the triple crown, you MUST be on this list which is Carlsbad + La Jolla.

    This Week’s Training

    We are UP and UP all around and Week 6 is the 2rd week of the 2nd Training Phase meaning it’s one more build-up of solid mid-week runs (and a great track workout) along with the longest run of the year on Saturday.  No new big bumps overall, except for Saturday long runs. 

    • Interval Run/Walkers – Nothing New, still at 4/1 and 1/9. Saturday up to 110min
    • Intermediate Runners – Nothing New.  Midweek still at 5-6mi, Saturday up to 11-12mi.
    • PR Chasers - Nothing New either. Lots of specialty runs in there. Saturday is up to 14 with an E11 + LT4.
