Run Club – 5K Training Program Race Week17 Apr

Run Club Workout Race Week!!!Ravenswood Run

It’s Race Week!!!

You’ve put in the hard work and the pay-off is almost here!

The training schedule for the last week is easy.  There is no changing of speeds, Tempos, fartleks, Yassos, etc.  You’ll do one long run / walk between now and Tuesday. Try to do about 2.5 to 2.75 miles at a comfortable pace.  Don’t worry about pushing yourself, this is just to get you comfortable with the distance.  Also, there is no need to do the whole 5K in practice, your adrenaline will carry you through on race day.  On Wednesday or Thursday go for a light jog or walk, about 1 mile just to work any kinks out.

Packet pick-up with all your race essentials including t-shirt, goody bag, number, timing info, etc will be available at our office on Thursday and Friday during our normal office hours.  You should definitely get at pre-race adjustment as well!

It’s not too late for you or any friends or family to join us, there are still a few spots left. All entries must be in by noon on Monday.  Please call or send me an email as soon as possible if anyone else wants to participate!

Keep an eye on your email next week as I’ll being sending out info and tips periodically on race strategy, etiquette, logistics, etc.

There will be NO group run this Saturday as I am competing in another race that morning and Dr. M has a baby to take care of.

Good running everyone!
