A Well Oiled Machine

This week we will continue the plan from last week, building up to the Corporate Challenge in 2 more Tuesdays. For those who are able:

Week 2 (June 7th): 1/2 mile intervals. ("800s") Beginners 2-3, Advanced 4.

For people that aren't up for speed work, you don't have to do it, of course. But keep in mind its the optimal way to get the best workout, in the quickest amount of time and shortest overall distance ran. And since it teaches your body to perform under duress, it will help you in your races as you fatigue near the end. So, it really is a workout to strive for once a week. And doing it with the group on Tuesday lets you share your misery.

Speaking of sharing your misery -- "The Centipediatricians" defended their crown in the Paige's Butterfly Run on Saturday morning. They were a "well oiled machine" and somehow turned running leashed together into something that felt comfortable.

Congratulations on the feat and for all of the entertainment you brought to PBR 2011.

Upcoming days of note:

In two Fridays -- Relay for Life.

In two Tuesdays -- Corporate Challenge.

In five Sundays -- The Boilermaker.
