JUNE 28TH TRAINING

First, let me congratulate everyone for running the 5K on Monday!!  It was very hot but you did it!  Keep in mind to take in plenty of water prior to your training runs.  We are dealing with very hot temps and it might be better to run a little later in the day once the sun starts to set. 

There is a change for June 28th. 

EVERYONE - runners, run/walkers, walkers, speedwalkers, and racewalkers will all meet at 5:45 in Lincoln Park, Monday, June 28. Meet at Shelter #7 just beyond the Nelson Center Parking lot on the right side of the road.


I have sent out an email as well.

Monday's Run

Great job everyone!  We completed our first 3 mile run together and tackled a few hills.  This will give you an idea what we will be doing when we meet on Monday evenings.  Please make sure to follow your training schedule as closely as possible.  This is what will make your training successful! 
The pace of our group is 9.5 - 10 minute pace.  We ran a little slower last night to get everyone acquainted with how we train.  Next Monday we will be picking up the pace.  If you have any questions about your pace or if you felt uncomfortable last night, please let us know and we can see if there is a group that you can go to, whether it be faster or a slower pace.  We want you to be successful!! 
Please let us know if you have any questions about your training.  This Blog is for the group to exchange ideas, set up meetings for runs, etc.  If you have any problems getting on the blog please let me know. 
Also, any ideas for a group name???  Please be thinking and we discuss soon.
Everyone have a great week running!!
