Welcome to the running public with Brack and Crocker and Kirk DeWint.

It's Tuesday, folks, and you know what that means, Training Tuesday.

We are going to take every rabbit hole, follow tangents, use useless metaphors, get lost in the weeds.

This is Training Tuesday.

When you're ready to take your training or racing to the next level, go to the running public.com.

We have both monthly subscription training plans, $1999 a month, and Bracken and I both offer one-on-one customized coaching.

Again, go to the running public.com and check out our offerings.

I prematurely hit the button. I don't think you were ready, Bracken.

I was prepared today. Usually Ily hit the button. I don't think you were ready, Bracken. I was prepared today.

Usually I'm finishing up chewing or swallowing or something. I got all that done.

Before I hit the button, I decided to hit the button right away because two things. One, I have a 5K in about a week, week and a half, and I'm going to hit my last big sharpening workout after this, the one where I'm not holding back, we will call it. I got about

nine days till race day. That's the sweet spot in my opinion for like one last true big effort where you're

actually pressing the pedal down.

And then I'm going to, you know, keep the RP a little lower between now and race day

on the quality.

And then you are kind of, you're kind of all in right now on training.

And you just described to me a really

big session sessions you did yesterday. And I think it's important for people to hear sort of like

practicing what we preach, which our listeners know we do. But, um, I don't know, you have what,

14 weeks until your next race. Is that what it is? what, 14 weeks until your next race?

Is that what it is?

Yeah, 14 weeks until high rock.
