morning joy

"The singer can easily move us to tears or to laughter, but where is he who can excite in us a pure morning joy?" - Henry David Thoreau in 'Walking'

Back by popular demand will be the 12 x 400m co-ed relays on Tuesday morning.  Please note that you should make sure that you have a watch, as you will need to report your times to the coaches after each effort.  Your recovery will be for however long it takes your relay teammate to run their 400m.  The efforts should start at about 95%, but you can drop them from their as you see fit.

Friday's workout will be determined mid-week.

Lastly, take a minute to look over the short article in Competitor magazine regarding the best sources of carbohydrates for runners...how many of these are in your diet?
