#Preblast – More Mile Prep

#Preblast – More Mile Prep

Swift will launch at 0515 on Tuesday from the Vine Restaurant at the Ballantyne AO.  With the 1 mile time trial (ok, it’s really 1600m) coming up next week on 4/28, be prepared for a 1 mile race pace workout to get you in the mood.  Have a target 1 mile race pace in mind and know the 200m and 400m splits.  For example:

• if your goal is a 6:00 mile, then your 200m split is 0:45 and your 400m split is 1:30.
• if your goal is a 7:00 mile, then 200m = 0:52.5 and 400m = 1:45.
