Monday, Week 8, Day 3, Wednesday, November 6, 2024 

Warm-up well,

45-55 minutes of easy running, 6 x 150 meter stride outs,

cool-down well,

Check your shoes and make sure that your training shoes

are ready for 10-14 more weeks of training. (Most shoes make it 12-16 weeks of training)

If not, go to a local running store and find one or two pairs of good training shoes.

We will speak about that soon!
