Thursday Track - 6-8 x 800, 400 rest

Hi Everyone. I hope all had a great Easter or Passover weekend if you so celebrated. Both Big Guy and I are out of town this week. Sorry we will miss out on all the fun. Mary will be handling the announcements and workout plan.

Workout is 6-8 by 800 at 5K pace with 400 rest. The intent is for it to be a speed workout. Get a good rest on that slower 400 but keep it a consistent rest from rep to rep. As is the norm, we will start the workout at 6AM at the Yorktown High School track. Please arrive before that to do your warmup.

A quiet weekend on the racing front with only one person reporting results:

Congrats to Paul Ryan for winning his AG and running a strong season opening 5K of 22:08 at the PVTC Easter race on the Bluemont course.

Thanks to all who volunteering at this weekend Parkway Classic races. I look forward to seeing you at our Belle Haven waterstop. To all of you running, best of luck and needless to say we will be yelling for you as you come by.

Rich
