Spring has been lurking around the corner since, oh, about December. But so has Winter, having never really made a proper entrance. And lurk the Old Man still does, as we await the weekend weather, with its dip in the Polar Vortex. Be that as it may, it was very Springlike as Judd and Davis Michael, Lance Bland, Costas Maranas, Mike Casper, Meira Minard, Mark Lee, Mike Martin, Bob Shafer, Seth Senior, Dan Coughlin, Joel Niemann, Alex Wouden, Rob Peterson, Adam Ilgen, David Lloyd, and Marty Mazur headed for the track.

Bwana was trying to get the workout of the day across to the Crew, but gawkers and lurkers were hanging like Spring jackdaws, squawking toward the runners inside. Bwana shooed them off (it usually takes a few bottle rockets) so he could get on with giving out the workout: 3 X (2 X 400), Medium - Fast - Medium. Do the first pair at about 5K race pace. Then move on to do the middle 2 at a hard pace, mile race pace or better. Finish with 2 back at the easier pace. Do them all with just 200 meters very slow rest between sets.

Bwana hopes at least a few of you do more than just lurk at the coming Spring races. This Sunday's Egg Hill run is a great tradition. And you don’t need to win your age group to get a prize. all you need to do is lurk by the door when they pull your door prize number!
