Early. It is impressive how many folks are showing up early. The pack is almost entirely on time. It is easier to get going in the morning in the summertime as circadian rhythms adjust for longer days.
Crazy 8s are the most beneficial workout for the pack. No other workout keeps the pack together as well for as long. Today the Outside ran 6 miles and the inside ran 4. So despite running 2 extra miles, the folks who made up the outside pack ran next to the inside pack (if even only for a second) twice for every quarter mile.
Basically, 40 people run a 30 second stride diagonally across the grass field inside the track. Regardless of where we are at the end of 30 seconds, we around the turn to the other side of the field, turn, then stride for another 30 seconds. This workout is defined time, variable distance. This workout allows every person in the pack to choose how hard they want to run the next stride. "Run how you feel." Feeling good, go a little faster. Feeling tired, run a little slower. "Run how you feel" is a training method that allows us to stay in the workout without fear.
600 repetitions added to the run. All core.
