You are now starting week 4. If you are a college runner, we suggest running 30-40 minutes in the mornings on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Summer training was one of my favorite times of the year. I would vary not only my training venues, but find places to train for a couple weeks. One of my favorites was the beaches in Santa Cruz. I would take my VW bus, get a campground for a week, and run twice a day around Santa Cruz and work on my tan. The other place I loved was Yosemite. I had a great twelve mile loop up the back of Half Dome.
Find the places that inspire you….
Ben True,
Monday: Warm up, 40-45 minutes easy running; 4×150 yards relaxed strideouts on grass, jogging back to the start after each, no rest between; cool down.
