Huge congratulations to all our Half-Marathon/10k/5k racers yesterday! It was a great day for GGRC, with a lot of PRs and generally good experiences all around. If you're still recovering from your race, please take this workout as easy as you'd like!

 Workout:

Pretty straightforward workout this week - we'll be doing 400-meter repeats! Here are the details:

• Distance: 400 meters (1 full lap of the track).

• Recovery: 200 meters (half a lap), slow jog.

• Pace: Aim for your 5K to 10K race pace.

• Repeats: Aim at least 5 times. At a faster pace you might do 8 or 9 times.

As usual, we'll go for around 25 minutes. . Challenge yourselves to see how many repeats you can fit into this timeframe! 

And, as always, team up to form pace groups – it's a great way to have accountability partners!

✅ Purpose:  This is a simple speed workout to push yourself to increase your speed & cadence, and also practice quick anaerobic recovery.

🔋 Post Workout:
Let’s go to Red Tail (545 Irving Street, between 6th and 7th Ave). Like the other places, they let you bring food as well. So join us for food and drinks too!
