Key Points

• Group training vibe: Emma joins an ATC “In‑Training” session in Atlanta, running a 9‑mile loop with water stations and a supportive crowd.
• Nutrition & hydration: Starts the day with a big bowl of oatmeal, coffee, and a jug of water—great fuel for a long run.
• Safety & fun: Emphasises staying safe, staying hydrated, and enjoying the run.
• Hill work: After the run, do 2‑4 hill repeats to add strength; keep the effort easy enough to finish the run.
• Race preview tip: At mile 3 (5 k mark) the infamous “Cardiac Hill” appears – a steep, short hill that’s a good place to practice hill effort.

Workout Example

• Warm‑up: Easy jog for a few minutes.
• Main run: Approximately 9 miles (about 14.5 km) at a comfortable, conversational pace.
• Water stops: Take a quick sip of water or Powerade every 2‑3 miles (the event provides plenty of stations).
• Post‑run hill repeats: 2‑4 repeats of a short hill (≈30‑45 seconds each) with a short jog or walk back for recovery. Adjust the number of repeats to your fitness level.
• Cool‑down: Easy jog or walk for 5‑10 minutes.

Practical Tips

• Eat a solid breakfast (oatmeal, coffee, water) 1‑2 hours before the run.
• Use the water stations; staying hydrated in hot, humid conditions is key.
• Keep the run “easy” – treat it as a recovery run after a hard tempo day.
• If you’re new to hill repeats, start with 2 repeats and build up.
• Have fun and stay safe – enjoy the community vibes.

Closing Note
