[Triumf-running] TRIUMF Running Group - Week of Feb 14, 2022

[Dan Thomson]

Happy Valentine's week everyone!

If you're still getting out for runs, here are some workouts for the week:

Tuesday Feb 14, 2022 - Longer intervals

   *   Meet at 12:00 outside the badge room
   *   Easy run to the junction of Hemlock and Huckleberry Trails.
   *   Dynamic stretching for a few minutes.
   *   4 or 5 1KM loops @ 10K pace with 90 second rests
   *   Easy run back to TRIUMF
   *   Static stretching

Thursday Feb 16, 2022 -  Progression Run


   *   Meet at 12:00 outside the Badge Room.
   *   Easy run for 10 minutes.
   *   Pick up the pace and then every 5 minutes, increase the effort a bit more.
   *   At 22.5 minutes turn and come back the same way.
   *   At 35 minutes regroup and then an easy run back to TRIUMF.
   *   Static stretching for everyone.

Weekend runs - The long run with faster sections.
This week's long run should be 60 to 70 minutes at an easy pace. It's a good idea to take along something for hydration and energy.

Alternate run days or cross training
If you want to run more than 3 days a week, do treat the extra runs as recovery runs. You should be able to converse easily during these.
Cycling, hiking, swimming, yoga, are great cross training activities. Basically, keep as active as possible without hurting yourself. The TRIUMF Strength and Stretch classes are an excellent complement to our training. Check out https://www.triumf.ca/triumf-social-club/triumf-stretch-strength.
Please feel free to pass this message along to others at TRIUMF.
