New track and new strength workout

Last Tuesday, the group met at Grimsley High-school's new track. It was nice and springy! We did need to pick up a few obstacles in the way, but otherwise, it was great! I found the workout quite strenuous, but was able to finish strong.

The strength training session with Brent Lester was very helpful. Brent was great to work with, showing us the exercises and taking time with each of us to make sure we were using correct form. The program he designed for us will help with range of motion, balance and core fitness-all needed for runners. Some of the exercises I have already been doing regularly - pushups and bridges. Balance has been a problem for me, so I hope these exercises will help with that.
