I have included our training program for this year's race. Each week we will increase our run ¼ mile or run an extra lap around an outdoor track. (4 laps=1 mile)
Start your training the week of August 25th. I have outlined specific days for you to run, but if it does not fit your schedule, then try to run 3x a week. We will meet every Saturday morning at 9am at various East Shore locations around the area. For a map to the location we'll meet that week, please go to our website http://www.eastshoreac.com/ and roll over the "Locations" tab. There is a google map to each location.
The first meeting place will be at our Johnnie Dodds location on August 30th at 9am. Ask for me and we'll leave promptly at 9:10am. Follow the colors for the location for that week. Continue to check back here for updates on where we'll be meeting, but use this a general guideline.
