Distance Training Groupings

2013 Training Levels

Here at CHS T&F Distance, we train by ability groupings. Being in a group based on how fast you race allows you to train at the appropriate level. Training too fast all the time leads to injury and burn-out. Training too slow all the time leads to stagnation.  The groups below are your training groups for the start of the season. Take a look at them, you will be running in those groups tomorrow.

You can move up or down in levels, simply by racing fast or by racing not fast enough, over the course of the year. We do not judge people by what group they are based in. Everyone is running their asses off, and everyone deserves the ultimate respect for giving it their best. These "feline" groups I have devised allow for you to truly reach their potential, which is really what the goal is.
