Some notes on workouts

Today's women's workout at the "Cator Loop" went well despite the heat. This may become the preferred location or mile repeats in the future. The "Cator Loop" is exactly 1,272 meters -- for those keeping score at home (and I know you are!). So the mile repeats were one loop and just a little more. The ladies did them well in the early fall heat and humidity.

Thursday's Bowdoin workout for the men promises to be a scorcher as well. Here's what is in store for you today, men:

1. Warmup
2. Bowdoin 5k course, hill fartlek (pushing the hills and the gate-to-finish pseudo 1km). Full recovery, then ...
3. 4 x 1k on the grassy, flat finish area. Slightly faster than RP with interval recovery (roughly 3 mins)
4. Cooldown.

It will be a long and hard day.

The women will work out again Saturday and then do some 1k thresh intervals next Tuesday.

The men will do a thresh type workout next Monday (some will do it on Tuesday) with extended strides on Wednesday leading up to Paul Short on next Friday, Oct. 2.

Note to the men: BRING CARS for practice tommorow. Please.

Run, REHYDRATE, Run Some More.
