Church Run

It was another beautiful morning in the heart of Buckhead. The humidity is coming back a bit but the temperature is still mild. We gathered at the far end of the track early this morning. We stretched our legs and some of us did a few pull ups. Once everyone was together, we ran up the stairs and continued the warm up with a set of stair step aerobics in the Stump Garden. Then we split into boys and girls. The boys did box jumps while the girls did squats. Then we switched. Our journey away from campus started down Ptree Battle and took a right at Rivers. Walking lunges were followed by Preacher seats then up Rivers for more stair steps aerobics on the retaining wall. At the base of Muscogee, we did a set of squats, then raced to Peachtree St. After another set of lunges, we crossed Ptree and ran down Lakeview to the Duck Pond. We all became tree huggers while exercising hips at Duck Pond. Our destination this morning was Jesus Junction. We arrived at the Catholic courtyard and were delighted that we could enter. We did yet another set of stair step aorobics before laying on our backs on the Holy Astroturf. After a combination of hip, butt and high ham exercises, we hot footed it over to Baptist back lot. There, we ran up the stairway (to heaven?) 3 times then ran to the Baptist front courtyard. We gathered on the Batpist Bleachers for inner thigh then hamstring exercises. From that spot, we ran to the Episcopial front door. St Phillips sits on a lofty perch that requires one heck of a climb. We exercised on the grass overlooking Peachtree Rd before calling it quits and running home.

3 miles 700 repitions of various lower body exercises.
