Track Feb 8 - 6-8 x 800, 5K Pace, 400 rest - MOVING TO W-L plus potential to cancel in the morning

Hi Everyone.  Big Guy remains in Austin this week so it will be just me this week.  If we have a workout tomorrow morning it will be at W-L and the usual 6AM start time.  That said, the rain today is supposed to cause ponding on the roads so for sure, water will be on the YHS track.  Combine that with the 26' temps in the morning and we would have skating rink.  W-L may be okay if it is safe to get there.  I will be up early watching the news and inspecting the roads.  I will post a message on the website by 4:45AM as to a go/no-go decision with safety being the priority.  Still, if the roads are okay there will be no way to tell if the track will be icy but W-L has real good drainage.  I am willing to be there if the roads are passable though.  So...

The workout will be: 6-8 x 800 at 5K pace with 400 rest.  A great speed workout!  Get there early to warm and the workout will start at 6AM.  We will me northeast corner of the track under the light on the utility room.  Again, check the website and Facebook too for the go/no-go on the roads.
