First Thursday of the month: 8-10 by 400s (speed workout) with full recovery
Second Thursday of the month: 6-8 by 800s (speed workout) with full recovery
Third Thursday of the month: 4-6 by one mile (speed workout) with full recovery
Fourth Thursday of the month: cruise interval ladder of 400, 800, 1200, mile and back down with one minute rest

Fifth Ave. Mile training plan: 15 minutes of warmups, strides, form drills. Then 4x1200, with each 1200 composed of 800m @ mile pace, 100m float, then 300m @ faster than mile pace. Full recovery (8-10 mins) between reps.

FYI for people who show up on time: Tonight we'll be spending the first 15 minutes as a team doing strides, dynamic stretches and running form drills.

Darn! I may show up just to watch and learn but not run since my leg feels iffy. Thanks for this, Scott!

Likely pre-workout drills tonight: Knee Cradle, Straight Leg March, Reverse Lunge with Twist, Carioca, High Knees, Butt Kicks (all found at: http://runningtimes.com/Article.aspx?ArticleID=19229&...). Also, I'll do a chalk talk on one element of good running form and we'll do a drill with proprioceptive cues (http://www.active.com/running/Articles/Sensory_cues.htm) to engage that aspect of good form. Thanks for the research go out Patricia T., Johnny M., Matt W. and Tommy P.
