good warm up

75-90 minute long run at a moderate pace with some uphill sections,

cool well

Check your shoes and make sure your training shoes

are ready for another 10-14 weeks of training. (Most boots make up a 12-16 week workout)

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

We will talk about that soon.
