WHAT'S MY PACE?
Use VDOT calculator to see appropriate paces >>> blueox.run/calc
Ax Pack is a place for more intentional "quality" workouts and training through the summer and possibly fall. It's not a "coached team" but more of a collective of runners learning and moving together as they navigate different abilities / races / goals but find common ground on the simple principles of training hard.
WORKOUTS: Structured workout with intentional warmup, drills, stretching beforehand. Use VDOT calculator (blueox.run/calc) to see appropriate paces. Check event info in our mobile app or website (blueox.run/axpack) beforehand or coordinate your own group to do the workout!
SUPPORTED LONG RUN: We’ll have an aid station set up at BLUE OX RUNNING (store) from 6am to 8am on these days. Coordinate your own start / stop / route with 10 mile loop options. We’ll supply water & Tailwind and possibly another fuel source. Check blueox.run/axpack for details. Drop off your fuel the week prior (Friday?) at the store.
TIME TRIALS & FITNESS TESTS: Use this as a fitness test! Summer session put on by UWEC Nordic & Triathlon (6pm race series).
We'll be posting all event information to the following places ...
FREE THIS YEAR! We're relying on some community volunteers to lead workouts
Check the EVENTS for each workout for exact instructions and timing / location
Of course! Many people will coordinate alternate times to do the workout(s) if they can't make the morning sessions. Communicate on the SLACK CHANNEL!
No! Thursdays 6pm will always be a casual free group run with the Blue Ox Herd … some call it “Run Club”! Our structured workouts meet as the “Ax Pack”!
