Wednesday Night Track Practice: March 9, 6:30 MIT track

Hi Team!!

This Wednesday is our first organized track practice!!  I think now that you’ve gotten a few weeks of running under your belt it’s time to change it up a little bit!  Track practice is aimed at making you a stronger runner.  It helps in all sorts of ways.  One, it gets you out of the monotony of just running to run – a new challenge, if you will!  Two, it helps increase your overall speed!  Three, and maybe most importantly, if you haven’t worked with speed before, I think you’ll find it’s a great confidence booster.  You will find yourself pushing your limits… running faster than perhaps you’ve ever run before!! 

We will hold practice at the MIT track from 6:30 – 7:30.  Please see map.   

You have two options getting there:

1)      You can drive and meet me at the track at 6:30.  You will start with a warm up run…. About a mile or so.  You can park right on Vassar St.  It’s metered but I’m pretty sure the meters go until 6:00 but bring quarters just in case!

2)      Meet at Axel’s. 154 Newbury St.  You can leave bags there.  Make sure you are there in enough time for a 6:30 SHARP departure.  Your run from Axel’s to the track is your warm up!!  You will go straight into the workout when you get to the track then cool down by running back to Axel’s.

I heard Daisy Buchanan’s served up some good eats after last Wednesday’s run… so if you’d like a more social run tomorrow night… go for the Axel run.  If you just want to come and get your workout done and head home…  meet me at the track at 6:30.
