runners...on your marks

Let's get ready to RUMBLE!  We're so ready to get this journey to excellence and fearlessness started with week one for 2017-18!I  We'll start it off early Tuesday morning with a structured cut-down effort to get an idea of where everyone is at.  Unlike last year we won't go in one big group, but will instead have two, maybe three groups for each gender.  We'll start around 75% effort and end at about 85%.  For Wed and Thu, because of the weather, try to get the majority of your mileage in on your own in the morning and leave 2-4 miles for the afternoon.  If you're not able to do this for some reason, communicate that with your coaches.  Friday, we'll work the lactate shuttle (look it up yo) with some 400's and then finish up with some hills.  P45417
