The start of June brought us back to New Hope and also
brought out our biggest turnout in some time, we had 20 Speedsters come out and
give the uncanny workout a shot. When
the runners arrived and took a gander at the workout board all the comments I
heard resembled this: What the @#$*? Who
the @#$%? 500’s? Yeah that’s right we did 500’s and it was not
easy, but it was the type of workout that ask more of you and it got it. Nice work everyone!
Who came out?
Dennis, Tim, Kevin, Eric, Rich, Charlotte, The Accardo Clan
[Anothony, Amy, Luke, and Nick], Joe, Jay, Brian, Rod, Glenn, Mary, Scott,
Denise, and out for the first time this season because of an injury Allyson
Thompson! Welcome Back!
Workout:
1 mile warm-up
6x500 (200)
6x200 (100)
4 On/Off 100’s (1 lap jogging
the turns and striding the straights)
1 mile cool down

Happy National Running
Day! In honor of National Running Day we

I would like to announce our newest Speedster
Officer Denise Coll! Denise will be
putting her outgoing personality and contagious smile to more good use by
helping the Bucks County Speedsters as the Activities Director. Denise will be putting together an Activities
Committee to help her with all the events that we do each season and also
putting together some new ones too. If
you are interested in being a part of this committee please contact Denise.
See you at Rita’s!
The hardest thing about the workout was not the actual workout but where does each interval began. Yes Glen, the 200 intervals came after the 500s. I got one demerit. I did one 100 recovery instead of 200. But I made up for it later by doing a 300 recovery instead of the scheduled 200. A tough workout because the "short" intervals translated to faster paces.
