January-early February workouts
Welcome back to Berkeley, first of all, for many of you after a fantastic fall season and much-deserved break. Each one of you will come back at various levels/stages of rustiness and recovery so I will be making individual adjustments to many of these workouts as needed. Some of you are raring to go, others are two weeks away from being ready to rock an interval workout. I will also factor in weather conditions as we can be subjected to everything from 38-72 degrees in the next month. If you don't believe me just remember those low 80s in mid-November followed by the monsoons which lashed, thrashed and trashed the GG Park cross country course. Without further ado...drum roll please...the workouts!
