Runner's Club

Runner's Club is still going strong! We have about 4-5 women now and still meet every Tuesday, and Thursday mornings at 6am. On Tuesdays I try to focus on shorter distances and sprinting. Thursdays consist of a little longer distance workout.

An example of some of our workouts:
Tuesday August 21, 2012:
  • 1 warm up lap
  • 4- 400 meter sprints (my time: 1:35-40) with a 100 meter recovery
  • 4- 300 meter sprints (my time: 1:05 ) with a 100 meter recovery
  • 1- 800 meter (3:40)
  • 4- 200 meter sprints (44 sec.)
  • 4- 100 meter sprints (17-18 sec.)
  • 1- cool down lap
Thursday August16, 2012:
  • 2 warm up laps
  • 18 min Interval run: (I ran approximately 2.25 miles)
    • 2 mins. Fast
    • 1 min easy pace
    • 3 mins. Fast
    • 1 min. easy pace
    • 4 mins. Fast
    • 1 min. easy pace
    • 3 mins. Fast
    • 1 min easy pace
    • 2 mins. Fast
  • Timed mile: 7:05!
I really want to bust out a 6 min. mile! I'm so close I can taste it! :) Maybe next time I can get my booty in gear. I really am only running these 2 days a weeks and I feel like it keeps me in pretty good cardio shape. I just wish I had more runner's club attendees! :)
