Bridge Out







Last night's workout had to be changed due to a fire drill, sort of.  In the picture above, a fire truck is using the water from the creek and spraying it like crazy for some kind of exercise.  Thanks to this Rod's plans were spoiled, if the truck would have gotten to the bridge 10 minutes sooner Rod would have been stuck on the other side and we all would have had a better evening...Thankfully Steve was at the park earlier and gave me the heads up about the bridge being out.  I was able to set us up on another hill and we got in a decent hill workout. 

Workout:

1 mile warm-up
4x200 (200) and 4x400 (400)
1 mile cool down

Coming out:

Sharon Sein (The sole women and her first hill workout of this season), John, Brian, Jimbo, Steve, Eric, Kevin, and Rod

Track Meet Update:

With the Bowling activity done it's time to focus our attention onto to the Track Meet.  The Track Meet will be held this year at the New Hope Solebury High School Track and the schedule of events can be found below.  All athletes and volunteers should be at the track by 7:30 to help set up, get warmed up, and stretched.  We still need plenty of volunteers to help with score keeping, timing, and officiating.  If you or someone you know is interested please contact me.  We're still in need of tents, ice, Gatorade, stop watches, soft pretzels, and fruit.
