    Hope people can still come to the workout. Don't worry, you don't need to do the fun activity afterward! Mile repeats this week!

    For the track workout -- I'm planning on pre-/post-workout form drills again! They're optional, but a good way to warm up and instill efficient running form. Be at the track by 7 sharp to get in on the action. (Also, FYI, some members of North Brooklyn Runners will be joining us -- please make them feel welcome, as they have done for us when we visited the McCarren track.)
