Preblast: Devil’s Turn Track Week

Preblast: Devil’s Turn Track Week

Yep, it’s track week at Devil’s Turn and yes, YHC is unabashedly utilizing the words of Bratwurst in this preblast.  Let’s face it, he writes better preblasts (and backblasts).  So here’s the deal:

DevilsTurn will be launching at 0515 on Thursday from the traditional 4 Mile Creek Greenway parking area on Bevington & Rea Rd.  We are headed to the South Charlotte Middle School track and back.

Per the weekly email this week, let’s have a pause for a safety message.  It will be dark and we will be running on public roads and on a dark track.  Wear headlamps, blinky lights, and sparkly night glow paraphernalia to avoid tripping, falling, or becoming road kill.  That concludes this safety message.

We will have a free-form workout this week where it is PAX choice.  In general, we will warm up a mile on the way out to the track, then accelerate into whatever pace you wish.  One suggestion is a 20-40min Threshold pace run as defined in the Pace Calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator (instructions for the calculator at http://runsmartproject.com/calculator/instructions/).

Plan to leave the track in enough time to return to the parking lot by 6:10 for COT.  You do the math.

See you in the gloom men!
