- T: Tempo runs – a threshold run is about 30 seconds slower per mile than your 5-K race pace.
- MOD: Moderate pace…faster than your EZ pace, but not all out. Able to maintain for an hour.
- RACE: Occasional racing improves your fitness and accustoms you to the stresses of racing.
- GR: Group Runs…..or Bikes….or Swims! A great way to get together with folks and experience training in a group. We will be meeting on the bike path or pool. Time and location TBD and will send out in the weekly emails.
