Central Park Training Run
- November 27, 2012 · 7:00 PM
Our Tuesday night Central Park training workouts are typically tempo runs or hill repeats. These workouts are usually very well attended with a wide variety of paces.
The meeting spot is inside the Time Warner Center in front of the main floor escalators leading to Whole Foods. (Do not go down the escalator into Whole Foods.) Transportation and directions:

We will leave Columbus Circle at 7pm sharp but will regroup at 7:15ish at 72nd transverse to give the full workout details, including distance, pacing groups, expected run time, and where we plan on meeting at the end. You can expect a typical workout to be between 5 and 8 miles (or less during hill workouts).
Please note that there is no place to store bags inside Central Park. Pack light, or store your bags at a nearby gym if you are a member. Another option is the New York Running Company at the Time Warner Center, which stays open until 9pm: http://www.therunningcompany.net/new-yorks-homepage
When you RSVP, please post your pace time and/or training run distance for the day.

Training runs are rain or shine and never cancelled due to rain or even snow, but in dangerous conditions like lightning or storm winds we will cancel a meet at the site. That said, I know tonight's run will probably be a small group, myself and a couple of the others on this list are unable to make it now. Be careful and have a fun run.

Hi Everyone, I just want to make sure we are still meeting up tonight or will the run be cancelled due to the weather? Thanks!

Recommended workout for Nov. 27...
RUNNERS WHO HAVE BUILT A DEEP BASE (lots of recent mileage and speed work): 1 mile warmup, then 4 x 100m hard sprints up a hill, WALK back down to recover. Then 3-6 x 400m uphill at 5K-10K pace, walk/jog back down.
RUNNERS WHO ARE BUILDING A BASE (not much recent speedwork): Similar workout, but do the 100m segments at 5K pace (not sprinting), and do a maximum of 4 x 400m uphill at 15K to half marathon pace.
