After last week’s killer 400s, and in anticipation (for most of us) or Ian’s Mile race in Ithaca on Thursday night, we have decided to scale the Tuesday workout for this week back a bit.  In other words, we will still work hard but will try not to use more than 90% effort on any of the intervals…(i.e. NO RACING!!)

Specifically, we will split into two groups.  The faster folks will do 5-6 X 1,000 at 5k or slightly faster pace and the other (by NO means slow!) group will do 5-6 X 800 at a similar pace.  In order to stick together as much as possible, the first group will cut across the field in order to join the others and do 200 meter recovery jogs together.

Information about Thursday’s race (a mile race to immediately precede the start of the Ithaca Festival’s opening parade) can be found at http://www.fingerlakesrunners.org/index.html. It should be a great time!!
