The latest details from your Race Directors:
These training options are designed for those who are training for our West of the River Series: June Jaunt, 5K, Father's Day; The Potato Run, 10K, Labor Day Weekend; Barbecue Bash Quarters, quarter to full marathon, First Sunday in November. Registration for the series or any individual race is separate (https://runsignup.com/Race/NY/Rochester/WestoftheRiverSeries).
Where:Workouts are usually at Greece Canal Park, at 241 Elmgrove Rd., Rochester, NY 14626 until too dark for the park (it closes at dusk). It has year-round restrooms and ample parking, making it an ideal base of operations. Alternate locations are within five minutes of the park, usually as close as five.
What:Tuesdays are hill workouts. Thursdays are speed workouts. Saturdays are long distance workouts. Includes workout plan through race weekend, coached sessions by Coach Vickey Beaver, supplemental information during meetings and online, and access to private training group Facebook page.
When:Choose mornings or a.m./p.m. mix. The mornings only option workouts all start at 8 a.m. That's ideal for second-shift workers and those who are otherwise free in the daytime. The a.m./p.m. mix are at 6 p.m. for the Tue/Thu workouts and 8 a.m. for the Saturday workouts.
There will be times when a scheduled workout is not coached or may entail an alternate arrangement. For example, there will be no Saturday workout on Nocturnal 12 weekend.
