Weekly Workout - Wednesday, May 1st: Strawberry Hill Repeats

[GGRC Coach]

🕕 When: Wed, May 1st, 6:15 PM
📍 Where: Meeting at Kezar Stadium, the East Gate / Strawberry Hill

📋 Format:

• Introductions
  
• Warm up
  
• Workout
  
• Cooldown

IMPORTANT: There's another track meet at Kezar this Wednesday (high school this time), so we'll be doing our workout in GGP instead. We'll still meet at Kezar, but outside the East Gate (with the columns, next to the parking lot). We'll do our introductions there, then run into the park as our warmup and regroup at the north bridge on Blue Heron Lake (formerly Stow Lake). Please only bring things you can carry with you, as we can't leave anything at Kezar.

🏃 Workout:

We'll be doing repeats of Strawberry Hill! The hill is about 800 meters distance/100 ft of elevation. You'll be running all the way to the top of the hill (don't stop at the top of the waterfall, keep going), then turning and coming back down. You'll have 1 minute in between reps at the base of the hill to catch your breath. I recommend trying for at least 4 reps (so 4 up-and-down cycles). If you want a flatter workout, you can run the outer rim of the lake, which is about a mile around.

🔋 Post Workout:
Let's go to Fireside (603 Irving St, between 7th and 8th Ave) this week! They let you bring food as well, so join us for food and drinks!

📅 Upcoming Races/Events:

• Saturday May 11th - New Members BBQ (members only)
• Sunday May 19th - Bay to Breakers
