Buckhead Marta Station

This is a workout of attrition. We start at E Rivers Elementary. We run up Peachtree Street and stop about every 200 meters and crank out between 20 to 50 repetitions of various exercises. Today we did mostly lower body. We did a lot of squats and lunges. We did leg presses and leg raises and kicks and calf raises and stair step aerobics. It was a 2 1/2 methodical climb up Peachtree that ended in the Buckhead Marta station. Mary Blythe and the new Jimmy hung with the sharks. We did our back rows in the tunnel under Peachtree, climbed out the other side then hammered 2 1/2 miles down hill back to E Rivers. The total repetition count was 755 ( the true record for home runs in a career). Total running distance was 5 miles, not including warm up. Attrition was the mission.
