_______________________________________________________________*
Hey everyone!
Well, this is the last normal week of training before we head into holiday mode. It’s a recovery week as well, so take advantage of the lower mileage. This doesn't mean stop running, it simply means "Rest and Recovery.”
Holiday Schedule- Moving our run to Sunday 12/26 and 1/2
As I mentioned last week, given Christmas and New Years falls on a Saturdays so we will be moving the run to Sunday 2/26/2018 at 7:15am and Sunday 1/2/21 at 7:15am.
This Week’s Training
This is week 8 and is a RECOVERY WEEK and perfect timing with the Holidays approaching and many office parties and eggnog to consume. :) What’s it mean again? The recovery week is a relaxed week of training in overall intensity for the long run, as you can see from the schedule. It gives you a chance to rest a bit and reduce stresses on your body and mind. It will provide a good base to “get back on it” next week. You should still get “out and about” the same, but cut back on intensity and overall mileage.
Specific training notes are:
- Run/Walkers – No Change this week. Saturday’s LR is DOWN to 80 min.
- Intermediate Runners – All runs EZ in nature, REGARDLESS how good you feel. Saturday’s LR is DOWN to 8.5 mi, easy.
- PR Chasers – All runs EZ in nature, REGARDLESS how good you feel. Saturday’s LR is DOWN to 8.5 mi, easy.

As Always
We will arrive 15-20 minutes before each group run to make ourselves available for questions, tips, etc.. We also plan to stay afterwards for as long as it takes to do the same. This means I'll be at Tuesday runs by 6 PM and the Saturday runs at 7 AM.
Please let us know if you have questions.
See you all tomorrow!
