Training paces
Recommended pace for your intervals is typically your 1 mile pace-10k pace, depending on your goals andthe length of time of the interval. But you are welcome to run at whatever pace you choose (and that may include walking and easy jogging for beginner runners and those recovering from injuries, hard races, etc.) You are also welcome to do your own workout rather than follow the group workout.
As we move from fall into winter, remember to carry/wear running lights, if you have them, to increase visibility.
Some resources to help you determine your own training pace.
Warm-up
We typically spend the first 15 minutes jogging slowly, followed by some strides and/or drills.
We run the group workouts by time rather than distance since we have a wide variety of paces, everyone runs for the same amount of time, and gets the same amount of recovery (usually 3 minutes between each repeat).
Here are some resources that explain and demonstrate these concepts:
Remember to bring lights to carry/wear, if you have them.
