dead week

Two weeks remain in the academic semester - dead week and finals week. Since the coaches will be attending our annual convention for the better part of finals week, this week will be the last week that we see you at practice before the holiday break. So let's make it a great one! It will be cold so make sure you dressed appropriately at all times.

We will devote this week to the 85% anaerobic threshold and we will do so in two ways - first, on Tuesday we will engage in anaerobic threshold intervals; then on Friday, we will execute a classic anaerobic threshold run. The venues haven't been determinded yet, but either or both the track and park cinder loop will be utilized. Pace close attention to how you feel during both of these workouts. And in keeping with the progressive return to running, Monday will be an OFF day with no running.
