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.

Blue Moon and Back to School


Well, even with the Blue Moon we didn't reach that magic number.  I had predicted 30 participants last night and even with the return of the Schaal's and the Accardo's we did not reach that mark.  It will now have to happen on the Hills for me to see it or I just won't see it this season.  I head back to West Chester on Monday and my Tuesday schedule has me on campus till 6PM and with the commute I won't be able to make it to any more speed workouts this season (maybe my absence is what it will take...).  It's crazy to think about the season winding down, but you only have to look to the skies to see it.  It's getting darker by a minute each day now and before we know it, we will be running hills by headlamp light.  Another sign that the season is coming to a close is that we're now starting Yasso's. Yasso's usually finish out our last 6 weeks of speed work.



Coming out:

Allyson, CT, Anthony, Nick, Maria, Eric, Kevin, Bharminder, Kevin T, Melissa, Jay, Carol, Dan, Megan, Tereza, Joe G, Tom, Renee, Steve C, Lev, Denise, Jens (Our newest member!  Welcome!), Brian, Erik, Chris, Tim, Phil (First Timer! Welcome!), and in her final workout of the season because she is headed back to school, Chrissy Gaul.  Chrissy it was such a pleasure to have gotten to know you over the past couple of months.  You're such a sweetheart and will be missed by all.  Good luck this semester and remember when your studies get tough you can always DIG DEEP!

Workout:

1 mile warm-up
Timed 400 (400) (Last timed anything this season.)
Week 1 of Yasso's
4x800 (400)
1 mile cool down

Next up:

We will be meeting at Council Rock South at 6PM for the hill workout.

Track meet this Saturday also at Council Rock South at 9:30 AM.  All Volunteers and Participants should plan to be at the track by 8AM.  Season Ending Party after the completion of the Track Meet (see evite for details).

Till we run into each other again...
