Run the 100’s at pace on the straightaways and the 100 recoveries on the curves. SATURDAY June 24 ***United Way Relays! Please sign up a 4 x 800 team today! *Long AHR run…add a mile to the length of your last long run. Run it as slow as it takes to feel comfortable. Towards the latter portion of the run, try doing a light fartlek of 1 minute faster (~10 mile-10Kpace) followed by 30 second slow for the last 2 miles. Try to pick a course that closely simulates your race course. Long AHR Run Guide: I’d like to see those of you shooting for the 4 Miler and Pepsi 10K be in the 8-10 mile range by the end of the summer. Those going for the Army 10 Miler or Richmond Half later on in the fall, should be in the 10-12 mile range by the END of the summer.
