Megan and I did a quick workout on the track from 6:15 to 6:45. I had hoped it would be better conditions for speedwork, but there were other people doing speed workouts who were much much faster, so it was a little too awkward. It was worth a try but based on last night's experiment, I wouldn't recommend the 6-7 period for Whippets speed workouts. But I'll be back on 2/11 to run a race!

Nice, planning to be up there around 5:30PM!

No and no. :-) It may be a little crowded between 6 and 7, but it's free, and we don't have to pay to stick around and watch the races afterward...

Cool - I should be able to get up there around then too. Do we have to pay the $15 to run on the track before the races start? Or to watch races?

Megan -- I'm confirmed to do the speed workout from 6 to 7pm at the Armory track. I will have gotten there around 5:30 to warm up and stretch so I can jump on the track promptly at 6. I think I'll skip the actual races, though. --Scott
