Great week of practice last week, I was talking to Coach Hawk on the way home Friday night that this is such an AWESOME group of athletes to coach. The small numbers enable to me to really focus on each kid, and the actual athletes are dedicated driven runners who truly want to get better. Can't ask for a better combination!
This week, we will meet again at Sierra on Monday afternoon for rollercoaster intervals. I believe everyone did six rounds, so this time, we will shoot for eight. We will keep the same times, just go for more volume. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday will be just like last week, but Friday will be a little different.
Friday night, my brother and his old college roommate and I are heading to Red Rocks for a punk rock show. So, Friday will be a "Dartmouth Run". Run for about 40 minutes, and run on an out-and-back course. The first 20 minutes, run at a good pace. Not interval pace, but make your breathing a little heavier than a normal long run. On the way back, try to start really ramping it up. Get faster and faster on your way home, so by the time you get home, you are going at a race pace. This is not a recovery run, this is a stressor run, so make it tough.
Saturday, meet at my place at 7:30, we will be going on a field trip to a track to do some ladder intervals.
See you all tomorrow night!
