*Strides: Stride 100, Turn around, Stride 100 back, Turn around, Stride 100,Turn around, Stride 100 back
Boston folks — those running a marathon this weekend could do something like 1 mile @ half-marathon pace – 400 jog recovery — 1 mile @ marathon pace.
Everyone else:
3 to 5 x 1 mile @ 5 KM pace for non-marathoners and @ 10 KM pace for marathoners with 400 m jog recovery in between.
If you raced Cherry Blossom, consider doing the track workout on Thursday.
Please feel free to tailor the workout to your needs!
WRC’s Gerry Ives, 70, ran 1:11:20 to win his age group by almost 13 minutes at the Cherry Blossom Ten Miler held on April 11, 2010.

Attention to all new and potential members, join us for a fun run to meet club members and to learn more about WRC. Also, if you are new to the area or new to running, we strongly encourage you to attend to learn more about running in DC and/or to talk about running with experienced runners.
We will meet at 7pm on April 28th in front of the Lululemon Athletica store on P St NW between 14th and 15th streets. Bring friends and join us for a shorter and slower version of our Sunday long runs!
