Hill Workout Recap & Speed Workout Reminder



As a vigorous month of May was coming to a close we ran a fun hill workout or as close to fun as a hill workout can get.  The workout started from the craft center in Tyler State Park.  We did a mile warm-up to a killer little 100 meter hill that we hammered over and over again, a dozen times.  What makes this particular workout fun is that the rest lap is 300 meters and all trail.    The workout was a total of 5 miles.

Joining me for the last hill workout of May:

Tim, Mary, Maria, Charlotte, Denise, Andrea, Steve, and Rod who not only had perfect attendance for all workouts held in May, but also perfect attendance for the entire season thus far.  Awesome job Rod!  Keep it up.

Speed workout:

This week and most likely for the entire month of June we will be back at the New Hope Solebury High School track.  We will be meeting at 6PM. 

Randomness:

I have added a bunch of pictures to the slide show on the Blog from last year’s Track Meet, in hopes of getting both those that have signed up and those who have not excited.  We still need quite a few people to sign up.  I also finally added a set Calendar to the Blog (located at the bottom of the site).  The calendar is interactive in the sense that you can click on the workout days and you are presented with a “map” option to help those not familiar with the workout locations.  I’m hoping this tool will be found helpful. 

Run the Gates:

It was awesome to see so many of you taking advantage of the great weather we were presented today.  Many of you were out at the Run the Gates 5 miler both volunteering and running, it sounds like some PB’s were set today and that is always great to hear.  Tons of hardware was taken home too!  Congratulations to everyone that participated today. 

Till we run into each other again, hopefully that will be this Tuesday…
