Speedwork makes you faster and you don’t have to be fast to start speed workouts. There are real benefits for runners of all skill levels so don’t be bashful. Speed & Track Workouts are currently on a informal basis at the Highland Park High School Track on Tuesday Evenings. Talk with your fellow club members for more information and make some plans for speedwork.
Tuesdays are traditionally for RVRR. Speedwork sessions are generally held in the early evening, and usually include three components:
Dynamic stretches and warmup
Speed component (track repeats, relays, sprints, hills, and even games designed that are so much fun you don't realize you are working out!)
Core work and cooldown
(Legend has it that speedwork may be visited by an ice cream truck on especially warm evenings)
