Now that Steve’s Surprise Birthday Marathon is over, I can publish my race calendar for the year.

I plan to peak for the Big Beach Half Marathon (already done), Wingfoot Mile, and Turkey Strut.

Wednesday I raced the Atlanta Track Club Grand Prix Cross Country 5k.

Even though I faded hard on the third mile, my strategy for that mile was just to “hold on.” I hit my strategy on the first two miles, so technically I hit my strategy for the whole race.

Friday started the fourth and final phase of my training cycle targeting the Atlanta Track Club’s Grand Prix Cross Country 5k.

Taper week gets a little weird with both the Winship 5k and the start of Biketober, but I have a plan.

I raced the Atlanta Track Club Grand Prix Cross Country 5k on Wednesday. It was the first 5k in years that I raced by feel rather than a target pace, but I think that fit the course well.
