Week of 7/14/25: Workouts for Tu/Wed/Th/Sat.

Hi Folks,

I’ll be updating during next day. Much on my plate right now.

SATURDAY HILL REPEATS/MOBILITY/LOADED CARRIES are ON for tomorrow, 7/19/25!

61525 TUESDAY TEMPO run pieces with short recovery jogs. After the warm-up mile you’ll pick it up to 10K race pace effort, i.e., “comfortably stressed” which would be a high aerobic pace simulating the non-stop running you’d do when racing. Each tempo time piece this week increases in length.

6′ Tempo (1′ easy run) – 8′ Tempo (1:30 easy) – 10′ tempo, then run to finish.

616/25 THURSDAY. SPEED-WORK on your local track. After the mile warm -up, x6 quick cadence 30 meter pick-ups you’ll do: Specific 5K practice.

A gp: for sub 6′ pace group: 12 x 400 at 5K goal pace ( on 2′)..If it becomes overwhelming, cut it short or go on the 2:30. The goal is hit very accurate 400 times, to “feel” the pace right for you. Takes much practice to know yourself: e.g., not to run the first 4 reps too quickly; you’ll pay later into the workout because the effort accumulates after the 7th 400.

B gp: 8 x 400 ( Judi on 2:45 or 3′; Tom on 2:15…We’ll gradually have you work up to 12 x 400 and then run another 5K race to test your pacing and fitness.

6/18/25 SATURDAY. HR/XT/MOBILITY/KEY EXERCISES/SPRINTS / LOADED CARRIES/KB LIFTS/DEADLIFTS. 9 AM in Lot “C” of the Seminary College, (201 Seminary Dr, Strawberry/MV area. ). I’ll open the chain gate about 8:40 so you can get in your warm-up while I set up.
