Today: Thursday, June 4
The plan is different for three groups at practice.
One group (new runners and those just getting started) will go for a run.
A second group (lower mileage HS and all returning JH) will run a workout of 800m grass repeats. See the map below. This is a low-pressure, early-summer workout. The goal is to run harder than a normal run, and to be consistent.
A third group (HS runners with more experience) will run 2-4x Tempo mile repeats on the mile loop. We have new Tempo paces, but it is okay if you are a bit above your pace at this point in the summer.

"The heights by great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight,
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upward in the night."
