Week of 8/26/47: Workouts this week for Tu/Wed/Th, but no Sat HR.

Hi Folks,

Was a delightful social with our workout groups at OUNCES OUTDOORS yesterday; the venue works well so we’ll use it again for future get togethers. We’ll have to schedule another gathering for those who could not make it due to being away on vacation or had conflicts.

This Saturday, 8/31/24 we will NOT hold our Hill Repeats/ XT because a number of us will be riding in the Tour De Fuzz 50K or 100K distances in the Santa Rosa/Healdsburg area. Always a nice ride followed by a good lunch. The Wine Century rides in May are the reverse course from the event this Saturday.

8/27/24 TUESDAY. TEMPO run day with two or three sets of tempo pieces at 10K race pace. After the warm-up mile up the pace at a controlled high aerobic effort:
