Hot hills better this week

Yesterday's Bowdoin Park workout went MUCH BETTER than the previous Tuesday workout, when we are dropping like flies in the heat.

While it was still hot yesterday -- mid-80s, humid -- there was a slight breeze and everyone got through the workout with little difficulty. I get nervous with this workout because the "back hill" gets washed out and the footing is not great. We will have to monitor this in coming weeks.

We'll have a few recovery days here before a high-volume tempo type workout on Friday. Tentative plans are for the men to head over to Vassar Farm for 2x4km tempo, while the women will trek over to the New Paltz Rail Trail for some flat intervals.
