Hi Folks,
Next
I look forward to less wind starting Tuesday; it’s certainly has aggravated my allergies for weeks now and saps my energy. I’m certainly not the only one. Here’s to the allergies winding down for all those affected during the Spring months.
Two weeks until Dipsea, which means a week of solid training followed by a taper week. You definitely needs the legs rested prior to race day because the Dipsea course is so demanding. Don’t arrive at the starting line with residual leg fatigue: you’ll regret if by the time you’re halfway up Dynamite! This weekend run to the Rain Forest or Cardiac and back at very controlled pace; save the big push for race day. I want to wish good luck to DAVID, our fastest miler at TL; he’ll be running Dipsea.
NOTE: you can get in TRACK/ SPEED-WORK at COM track on Thursdays with some of the other group members who meet there about 7:30 for warm-up run; then do the workout I post for Thursdays.
