Time to TRY Again?

Hey everybody,
Mark here again...Susan and I have decided to TRY to fill in for Terry and get things going again, now that (hopefully) winter is in its final days. So, the plan is to start meeting this Tuesday (3/10) at our usual spot - the Onondaga Lake Park, Wegman's Playground end, at around 5:20. We're planning on starting the run at 5:30 sharp (I'll put a weather permitting caveat here...more on that later). Since I've been slacking the last few months, I'm planning on just doing easy runs the first few weeks, i.e., 3-5 mile runs at an easy to moderate pace. In other words, no speed work yet. However, don't despair, I do plan on switching to speed work (e.g., intervals, tempo runs) in a couple of weeks. Like always with TRY, everyone is welcome to run at their own pace. The important thing is to get out there and log some miles, and hopefully have fun doing it.

Now that I've got everyone excited to TRY again, the weather looks like it's going to be about 40 degrees and raining tomorrow afternoon. Now in the fall, that probably wouldn't stop me from running. However, after this long/cold/snowy winter we've just had, I'm more likely to wimp out in this type of weather. So, back to my "weather permitting" caveat, I'm planning to be at OLP at about 5:15/5:20 this Tuesday, but if it's crappy out at this time, I'm probably going to say the hell with it and go home.

So, hopefully I'll see all of you tomorrow! If not, maybe next week?
