Cycle 4, Cutback Week
With last week’s big miles uploaded to Strava, it is time for a well deserved cutback week! Mileage is low but keeping the same pace is important. Some runners may think about sneaking up to a faster pace for this week. Encourage them to stick with their regular groups.
Chicago Kids Tri and SuperSprint Triathlon will be held this Saturday. This means that 🚧Simonds Dr.🚧 is closed, there will be lots of excited kids, exhausted parents clutching their coffee, and bicycles everywhere. Send out notices to your runners to arrive early and park on Wilson, Montrose, or in the paid lots🅿️.

Other Items
Ready2Run Registration is open. There’s no charge for group leaders or training program participants, but you do need to register. Check your email for information. There are separate forms for GLs and for participants, so please make sure you use the correct one.
RushPT continues to be on-site; please remind runners that a PT is available for questions and evals as part of CARA’s partnership with them.
And that’s all I have for this week. See you, tomorrow!
