Week of Oct. 27 Group Run Schedule

Hello! 

Based on the Novice 2 training schedule, I've planned the following runs for WEEK THREE OF TRAINING!! Sorry for the lack of an eastside run but I don't know the non-trail areas well enough to plan a run, and the directions on map my run just aren't accurate enough for me. So, I scheduled one run at Seward Park, figuring that's a little closer for you south end folks. If someone wants to coordinate an alternate eastside run, I won't be offended, just let me know. I'm happy to discuss and adjust on Saturday if need be.

  • "Roger’s Workout" around greenlake for 20 minutes (1 min hard/ 1 min easy; 2 minutes hard/1 min easy; three minutes hard, two minutes easy. REPEAT)
