Hawks Ridge

One of these mornings, you're gonna rise up singing. You'll spread your wings, and take to the sky. Until that morning, nothing can harm you. Your daddy and mommy standing by.

We spread our wings this morning. The boys ran together down the far stairs and half way around the track before running across the field and up the center set of stairs. When the gentlemen returned to the top ridge, the ladies dropped their hand weights and ran the same route. While the sweeties were stretching their lamb chops, the handsome worked shoulders, arms, and back (all upper body). When the chicks returned, the dudes took off. The babes picked up the hand weights and jazzercized until it was again there turn to double-time.

We all ran strides together on the grass at the end of the hour. This is again related to "race simulation." At the end of a race, our form begins to deteriorate. We practice good form when we are tired so we can remain fast and efficient for longer stretches of time and distance.

3.5 miles, 600 repetitions of upper body exercise.
