Pushing Each Other



The theme of tonight’s workout was “pushing each other,” and that’s exactly what took place.  It was very clear that groups are starting to be established and within those groups the runners are pushing each other.  Everyone that came out tonight really worked it.  We had one new runner and two veteran Speedsters make their first appearances of the season tonight.  Perhaps the first warm night scared some folks off (two less than last week).  Aside from the smaller attendance number, the workout was a very good one.  Quote of night after pushing the limits on the last hill came from Andy Shapiro.  He ran so hard that he almost caused himself to vomit, I turn to him and asked: Was it worth it?  His response “It’s always worth it.” I also wanted to give Maria a shout out for really pushing it on the last hill as well. 

Coming out tonight:

Andy, myself, Tim, Scott “Texas Ranger” Craig (first appearance this season), Jimbo Larson (first appearance this season), Paul, Kevin, Glenn, Rod, Jackie, Izabella Khachaturyan (I didn’t just make that name up and 1st Timer!  Welcome!), Denise, Maria, and Brendan.

Thank you to each of you for coming out tonight and I will see you on Thursday in New Hope.
