The good news is we're now in the no-contact period of the summer so we'll get it out of the way and have an extra week in August to train before our first meets in September.
Previously I thought we were using the City period which is from July 23rd to August 5th.
However, we have our own period from July 16th to July 29th.
Don't despair as you can run on your own and subscribe to either or both of the Islander Track Blog or Facebook page where you'll find plenty of content to get you through the next 10 days. Coming soon are posts for new runners, a couple of Running Logs, and progression suggestions for pre-season training regardless of your current level. Keep in mind the excellent advice of Alberto Salazar "The most important part of your running program is simply the distance that you run every week and the consistency of doing a long run every week. Over time those two single elements are going to be the most important part of your development as a runner; your ability to run far, to run fast, and to run comfortably." At this point in the season, especially for those of you who haven't been running consistently throughout the summer, this is about the best advice anyone can give you.
