Week 4 Schedule - 6/27-7/2

Redhawks,

Welcome to the final week of June - and our last week before moratorium. We will not be practicing from 7/3 - 7/11. We will resume practice on 7/12. Don't expect an update next week (I'll be out of town) but there will be a new schedule for the following week.

We've had a lot of strong improvement over the past 3 weeks, and we are looking forward to much more. Now is when the cumulative fatigue of summer (not just from running) starts setting in - so make sure that you are sleeping enough, eating enough, eating quality foods, and checking in on your teammates to make sure that they are still doing those things and coming to practices. 

I know some of you are in and out of town, and that is great; make sure you are running and using each day to get better. That may require you to get creative and/or make your parents or siblings join you for the run - that's one way to create lasting memories, especially on vacation.

On Friday 7/2 we will be meeting at Mills Park - 1850 S 1200 W, Woods Cross (East end of the park). After practice we will have a breakfast at the bowery there. We will make pancakes but if you want to bring anything to share feel free. If you need to leave before the breakfast that is totally fine. 

I know several of you will be racing on Saturday morning at some local 5Ks, there is one in Centerville at 7 AM and one in North Salt Lake at 8 AM. Both are in that $20-30 range. If you are so inclined, I encourage you to get out with your friends and family and join in our country's oldest tradition*: racing to celebrate independence day.

*note: I just made that up, it's not the country's oldest tradition. 

Finally, next week during moratorium is a chance for you to recover a bit by doing easier runs each day, rather than the same intensity we have been doing. I recommend getting one "long" type run in, and one threshold/tempo run in, but the rest be easy. Don't spend the off week squandering your gains or trashing your sleep schedule.

If you have any questions please let me know.

Coach Jacobson
