We will be doing a Prospect Park training run meeting at the Grand Army Plaza Entrance to the Park (right outside the Park) at 7:00 PM. The planned run will be posted at last 24 hours before the start of the training run. Please post your planned pace for the run so we can make sure everyone will have a companion to run with!
Recommended workout for March 19: 1 mile warmup, then...
BOSTON and NEW JERSEY marathoners: 2-3 repeats of 3 miles at marathon pace, with a half mile recovery after each (vary the pace of the recovery to increase the challenge). Finish with 1 easy mile to cool down.
SCOTLAND 10K and BROOKLYN HALF competitors: 7-9 x 400m uphill at 10K pace. Aim for a good volume at 10K speed, not faster but fewer. Walk-jog back downhill to recover, and finish with 1 easy mile to cool down.
OPTION FOR RUNNERS BUILDING A BASE (not much recent speedwork): 4-6 x 400m uphill at 15K pace, walk-jog backdownhill to recover and add a 1-mile cooldown.
