Spring is Here!

As Terry posted over the weekend, spring has arrived in CNY!  Tomorrow's forecast is 60 degrees.  This is the perfect time to come out and get back into shape :)

For those of you who haven't been running, come out and get back into it with a couple miles.  If you have been slowly building, use this week to add some distance to your run.  If you feel tired, slow your pace a little so you can safely add that mileage.

For those who have been running and don't need a longer run, I recommend doing 2-4 quarter mile repeats over 4 miles.  I have 1 hour on the calendar if anyone wants to go a little further.  If my legs feel good, I will do 5 x 3 min pickups with 1 min rest.

As usual, please tailor your workout to your fitness at this time of the year.  You want to make sure to build slowly to avoid injury.  My workouts are a little more aggressive right now since we have been building for 9 months, and no one should feel that they need to be as crazy as me.  Always run what is right for you!

Don't forget to check out Terry's posts on Facebook about maple syrup, a couple of local races that he supports, and baseball opening day on Thursday.
