Welcome:

The Bucks County Speedsters is a group of runners

that meets
twice a week to work on our speed,

strength, stamina, and
overall performance. Our goal

is to improve runners of all
levels. We encourage

anyone interested in running to come
out to one of

our workouts and see for yourself that in our


community everyone is welcomed and with our

guidance and
your hard work, together we will aspire

to make you
faster. We hope that you will lace up

your running
sneakers and meet up with us someday

soon.

Not too Shabby!

We had 34 runners come out to run off all their beer and barbeque this past Tuesday.  Coming out to the track:
Matt, Charlotte, Jimbo, Myself, Allyson, Mark, Mary, Wendy, Jay, Joe, Mort, Cory, Eric L, Scott, Shirley, Cece, Phoebe, Mike G, John, Steve C, Jackie, Carolyn, Suzi, Sheryl, Deb M, Steve I, Olivia, Eric S, Sharon, Glenn, Paul Bukowski (back at it, good to see you), Denise Coll (First time out this season Welcome back), Rich, and Mike B. 
Thank you to each of you for coming out. I know it can be difficult to get motivated right after a holiday weekend, especially one that had many of us racing a 10k. 

Workout:
1 mile warm-up, stretch,12x300 (100), 1 mile cool down, drills, & worked on relay exchanges

What I saw last night:

I saw a lot of walking last night and because of the previous mentioned holiday weekend I didn’t say anything about it, but by walking you are canceling a lot of the anaerobic work you had just put in.  I know some of the workouts don’t grant what you think is enough rest, but I can only stress that you not walk, but try shuffling.  Ideally you should be jogging all rest laps.
Congratulations are in order for Brendan Johnson and Jackie Amato who recently got engaged!  You both must be so excited; I speak for all of the Speedsters that know you both that we all are!  Best of luck!

Don’t forget I will have the Phillies raffle each week leading up to the track meet.  Speaking of the track meet we will need non-participant volunteers to help with timing, officiating, and score keeping.  If you have friends and family that are free on August 13th that could help out let me know.

Until next week Speedsters, stretch, ice, and add rest days to keep those legs and feet healthy.
