This is Week 1, day six of the RunBlogRun 2022 Summer Cross Country Mileage Program. Give us 8 weeks and we will get you fit for fall cross country.
Galen Rupp is running the marathon at the World Championships In Eugene, Oregon. It will be held on Sunday, July 17, 2022 at 6.15 AM local time.
Galen Rupp, four-time Olympian, two time Olympic gold medalist, will be representing the USA. I have observed Galen run since he was a top placer at the Nike Border Clash in his junior year in high school. A friend, Dave Frank, Coach at Central Catholic had me join him at San Jose City College in 1995, at the AAU Junior meet to see Galen take second in the 5,000 meters.
Galen Rupp came through the ranks and cross country played a huge part in his development, it should be part of your program, too.
Your Workout today, July 9, 2022 is: warm up, easy 40 minutes, cooldown.
