What to expect at Weeknight Workouts:

The focus of the weeknight workouts is to work on our speed and power when running. Whether you’re looking to finish your first distance race or you fastest distance race - building a speed workout into your training is important. You work different muscle groups (fast twitch vs. slow twitch muscles), build endurance in your legs and lungs, and it helps keep our workouts from getting stale. We’ll cover a variety of workouts such as Speed Repeats, Hill Repeats, Fartleks (Swedish for ‘speed play’), tempo runs, etc. We focus on pace and effort during these workouts. Below is an example workout:

• Welcome/Announcements/Find your pace groups
• 10 min Warmup Easy Jogging
• Track Ladder workout: 400m hard effort/jog 200m recovery + 800m hard effort/jog 400m recovery + 1200m hard effort/jog 400m recovery + 800m hard effort/jog 400m recovery + 400m hard effort
• 10 min Cooldown easy jogging
• Optional Cool down stretching/core with your group
• Overall, you’ll have done ~3 miles of speed work, but with recovery included in the workout.

What to expect at Sunday Long Runs:

The Sunday Long run focus is on time on your feet. We use the long run to build up our endurance so that we can finish our distance races healthy and happy! Overall, these long runs should be at a very easy pace. We don’t want to race through the long runs because it will feel like we’ve ‘raced’ every weekend - our bodies will be tired and it increases the likelihood of injury. Each group will be led by an experienced mentor who will help guide and support you! Typically, we will run loops from a central point so that we can have access to water/bathrooms/coaches.  We’re also able to accommodate different training distances this way, you still get the support of the group but can train for your goal race.
