Oh, that definitely makes sense, Buff. I've only run one race where I had to take off sleeves. Either my races are warm enough I know I won't want sleeves within minutes so start off chilly or they're so cold I will wear sleeves the whole race (Turkey Trot)!

That's why we're in this check in. To encourage and help each other. I can only say what's worked or not for me, but that often is enough to help someone else avoid a mistake. Vannie, the weather this week hasn't been conducive to running. With all the rain this week, I decided to finish S90 this week, run only once, do the Kiskstart series next week while getting in 3 runs. I will finish up the second round of Cassey on Fri, Sep 20. That's my drop dead day to decide 10k, half, or 50k for Wild Duluth. I guess if the half fills before then I will have to do the 50k. Sandy O

Buff, what are you using for your interval timer? Does Runkeeer have a timer or are you using a different app?

I started with 1 min intervals and moved to 2:1 so kept the apt on 1 min audio alert. Distance trigger is by the mile primarily but includes 1.25, 1.5, 1.75 miles (ie. not .5 miles or 2.5). Time intervals are 1 min to 5 mins than every 5 min. I couldn't come up with a better system. If you can, I'm all ears! Girlfriend tells me my distance, average pace and current pace every minute. Maybe I should try some earphones before the race?

I'm bailing on Cassey. I'm not enjoying it at all and didn't even finish day 3. I think I'll list out the exercises and try adding them in at a reasonable rep count that doesn't make me want to bang my head on the wall.
