Fun track training last night. First, we went over track etiquette. Inside two lanes are for faster runners, outside two lanes are reserved for the walk team, and we warm up running clockwise and do our training counter-clockwise. Then we warmed-up for about two laps, then did some dynamic stretching. I personally didn’t feel anything during that part, so I need to find out if I’m doing it wrong or what.
Then we formed three-person teams and ran 3x200m relays at our own pace. We were told NOT to sprint and that this was not a race. I teamed up with two women around me, (Laura E. and Nicole C.) and we did our 3x200m relays for about 40 minutes. We finished up with a cool-down lap and worked on some static stretching.
After the session, one of the walk team members held a “hang with the gang” taco fundraiser. It was nice chatting with my teammates over some delis, homemade tacos! Also bumped into one of my participants, Fay C., and found out she works in downtown Campbell, too. Apparently, she’s been at every event, but never introduced herself. WTF? Am I that intimidating or just repulsive? Wait, don’t answer that.
