Web and app developer. Coffee, beer, and running, in any order.
Friday started the fourth and final phase of my training cycle targeting the Atlanta Track Club’s Grand Prix Cross Country 5k.
Taper week gets a little weird with both the Winship 5k and the start of Biketober, but I have a plan.
Saturday Run Family representing at the Winship 5k.
I raced the Winship 5k last Saturday. It was tough, and I was slower than I wanted to be.
With tomorrow’s race-time forecast of 63°F, I’m adjusting my target time for the Winship 5k from 23:31 to 23:40.
Given the route’s terrain, I plan to push the pace on the first mile downhill, push through the uphill second mile, and then hang on for the flattish last mile (and change).
This week marked the start of the third phase of my training cycle.
