Each workout/tempo/fartlek day should consist of an 800m warm up and cool down, LDs, abs, stretching, other maintenance. No weights.
Pay close attention to Coach Mullen's strength and conditioning plan, to be done twice a week.
Pre-meet days should consist of:
GROUP LEADERS AND ALL OTHERS - make sure you're running at your appropriate base mile pace, which can be found in the "Base/Tempo Pace Chart" located here.
