Last Saturday my running group Albany Run/Walk ran 4 miles with a Magic Mile in the middle. A Magic Mile is a one mile for time. We use this mile time trial to place runners into the different pace groups. Albany Run/Walk has six different pace groups based on the Magic Mile Times. Basically we take the Magic Mile time add a few minutes to it to get the group training pace. Each group will run as slow as the slowest runner in the group. We do a Magic Mile about once per month. I always love the weeks that we do the magic mile. For me it is like a little test to see how I am improving throughout my training. Here is a video of Albany Run/Walk at the Magic Mile Run last Saturday. Enjoy!
