Friday is the end of the week. You have survived your first full week back to school and for many, indoor season is upon them. Outdoor track starts (and has started in a few places).
Here’s a relaxed Friday workout. Remember, if you can find a small meet to race at tomorrow, try the 800m, or 1000m. Have some early season fun.
