Wildcard Run (The Positives of Being Negative-3 Mile Progression Run)-10/25/18

From Coach Toby...
Running negative splits. Join me tonight to learn about how this race strategy may help yield you faster results come race day – and even a PR. (Personal Record)

After last week’s hills, we’re taking it back to the flatlands. After a 10-15 minute warm up in Golden Gate Park, runners will do 3 one-mile Panhandle repeats, running each mile progressively faster than the last.

I’ll provide instruction/guidance for how to approach the pacing. After we are done, we’ll finish things off with a one mile cool down jog back to the stadium.

Wear your headlamp and if you wish to track your pace and splits, bring a watch too. As always, post-workout dinner & drinks for those interested!

Warm up/cool down:

-Exiting the stadium, turn right and proceed to the stoplight at Kezar Drive.
-Cross Kezar Drive onto MLK Jr Drive.
-At intersection with Bowling Green, cross street and turn right.
-Cross over Bowling Green at crosswalk. You are now running on the right side path.
-At intersection with JFK Drive, cross street and turn right
-Cross Stanyan then right to reach the Panhandle
-The start and finish of each loop is here at Oak/Fell and Stanyan

One mile(ish) repeats:

At Stanyan and Oak, run along the paved path clockwise. Fell St, right on Masonic, right on Oak, back to Stanyan. Repeat 3x. Each loop is .96 mile, so approximately 1 mile.
