Below you will find the links to this week's training calendar, updated groupings, workout info, and SAM Phase 2 hard. Just a reminder that this week you will be on your own for conditioning every day. Like we talked about Monday at camp we don't rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training. Running over the summer (whether with the team or on your own) is super important to having the success that you want to have as an individual and team come fall. Group up with your teammates, have fun, get breakfast after, and log it with any comments especially if you are sore or feeling worn out. Consistency is key!
The calendar is now in a horizontal view like track season and our groupings are condensed to 3. Changes have been made based off of logs and workouts. Junior high and middle school runners, run the amount of time you feel comfortable with each day. You are on the grouping page only to see your pace and running partners. Let me know if there are questions. This week's workout is a fartlek at tempo pace followed by 2 minutes at a recovery pace. Tempo is best described as comfortably hard running, slower than 3 mile race pace, or 80% effort. You should be able to say a few words or phrases but not talk in complete sentences during the workout.

Jay Johnson is a professional running coach and exercise physiologist. With the summer heat arriving this week it's very timely and contains spot on recommendations to help you complete your timing, but not obsess on pace as it gets hot and humid. Subjective measures such as how you feel while running can be more useful especially as you look back into your logs. The article can be found by clicking here.
