3 X 7 = 21

The Running Boom is alive and well. More people are turning to running than any other sport. Running is cheap, simple, social and healthy.

While 5K is still the most popular, the half marathon continues to draw more new road racers. Testing ones endurance is very popular particularly among the ladies. New road racers often scoff at "only running a 5K."

Ironically, "only running a 5K" is healthier if done correctly. The math goes like this: 3 X 7 = 21.

Folks that run 3 miles 7 days a week pattern the training of an elite runner and become FASTER. Typically, these same folks become thinner too. Daily exercise has been proven over the years to produce greater fitness.

Folks that run 7 miles 3 days a week become "half marathon finishers."

SPEED: Challenging ourselves at faster paces, higher heart beats and greater volumes of breathing also produce "runners high" quicker and with less pounding than LSD (Long Slow Distance).

3 miles a day looks like this: Warm up, get on your toes and GO, cool down.

Penguin Boot Camp

Penguin Boot Camp is a group of fanatical fitness freaks that are totally loyal to each other and the group. They are adaptive to any change in climate and only assume the form of a "waddle" during the winter solstice. The extra layers of protection needed for outdoor activity create a uniformly but uncharacteristic pudge factor not seen in the other seasons of the year. They are social group that can be seen and heard throughout the Buckhead neighborhoods just before and after dawn.

Also, register for the MLK Day 5K on line or show up to Boot Camp. We have registration forms at every workout. Fill out a registration form. We take cash, check and credit card!

Party

The crowds have been pretty good despite the weather. Folks love the company. We are holding two one hour cocktail parties every morning. The short shirts have been replaced with yoga pants and the alcohol has been replaced with running and exercise. The result is roughly the same. A hand full of dopey dudes are chasing around a pack of hot ladies talking and pretending not to notice they are there.
