Over the last eight years of Boot Camp, it has been customary to run timed miles. We do these on the track, The Muscogee Mile, on Peachtree and now our new favorite, Andrews. We line up at the back driveway of St Phillips and run to W Paces Ferry. It is exactly a mile. Then we run back.
Our warm up is a slow climb up Peachtree from PTree Battle with a few stops behind the truck for upper body exercise. We also exercise between timed miles for active recovery.
When we have a larger crowd together in a pack, the workout seems easier. The energy and activity around us switches our focus away from US and toward the beautiful smiling faces around us. This is important because our minds (ego) never compliment us (our true self) during the workout. Our minds rarely say "I am so proud of you today! You look great in this workout." No, our minds say " you are going to die in this workout. Either slow down or stop!"
Staying in the pack relaxes the mind (ego) and allow our bodies to operate without the distraction of a continuous flow of negative thought. Show up, get in and don't think.
