First Track Tuesday Workout of 2023

COVID-19, “ The Rona Era”

It’s a rainy Tuesday and everyone is returning back to work and school from holiday vacation. Ugh, the quiet of the mornings are over. Today, is the first track Tuesday workout of the year. Since I was never ran track or cross country, I don’t know all the terms, techniques, and exercises that will help with running performance. Through the Heartbreakers and Track Tuesday, that I’m slowly learning some of theses things. Even if I don’t understand them all, I know that my running will improve.

The trick will be once school starts how to do this and make it in time to teach my 9:25a.m. class. I’ll worry about that next week.

Today was great. It was wonderful to see my BGR sole sistas that are training for Boston, team Red crew lead by Jordan and MB, and the rest of the red gang. Today we did a lot of running. 23 times around the track at 10k pace, 5k pace, 2- 1 mile pace. We did 5 sets of 4 with a 45 sec break inbetween.

See, I’m learning. I like running with others because I push myself and I surprise myself at what I can do. Plus, it’s just fun and the time goes by fast. Dare I say, I enjoyed it? :)
