Frosh or New |
SUMMER 2011 This is the summer schedule for you if you will be a Freshman, or if you are new this year to Cross Country. |
||||||||
| If you've been in Track, take a couple of weeks off and then begin running according to the following schedule. | |||||||||
| If you haven't been running, start now, gradually, and then pick up with the following schedule as soon as you feel like you can. Don't, however, do too much too soon. At this point in time it is better to error on the conservative side than to overload and injure yourself. | |||||||||
| Numbers in the following table represent minutes for a single run that day. | |||||||||
| Each run should be at a comfortable pace, but not a waste of time. | |||||||||
| Beginning the third week, make one run every other week a bit of a challenge run, | |||||||||
| push yourself a little. Better yet, race a 5 or 10 K somewhere. | |||||||||
