Standard WU

* 1-2 miles easy jogging,

* stretch,

* 4 x 100 easy, relaxed strides, 2 x 100 fast strides.



Main Set

* 2-3 sets of 4 x 300

* Run the 300's at 400 meter goal pace (for our sub 18:45er, that comes out to about 60-63 secs), except run the last 300 at 90-95% effort.

* Jog 100 meters between each 300.

* After 4 300's jog one lap and repeat. If you need to take more time to maintain goal pace, jog as much as you need (2, 3 or 4 laps is ok), just be sure to keep moving.

* If you have been able to maintain goal pace, and are feeling good, you can do one more set. BUT BE SMART ABOUT THIS.

* Remember to visualize yourself as a fast, smooth, sleek runner.
