Stetson Rayas, November, 2018

We race at the NCAA National Cross Country Championships in about 10 days. This was the session that I chose for Stetson Rayas to complete as he prepares for his last collegiate XC race.

Stetson is not a fan of ‘speed’ work…but after a hard 10km in miserable conditions at 5,500 feet elevation I wanted to run a workout that would hopefully leave him feeling good and get some pop back into his legs.

All in all, I think it was a successful workout…but I suppose that we’ll see in about 10 days!!!
