Running 

Hill Running
We use hill running once per week to improve our cardio-vascular (CV) fitness. Hill running allows you to push your CV while minimizing impact to joints.

Speed Work
Speed work on the track once per week is used to improve fitness, encourage positive endorphin production, and measure fitness.

Recovery Runs
Recovery runs, usually only 1-2 miles once  per week, are  used to keep loose and limber in between more difficult runs.

What to bring/wear

At a minimum,  running  shoes, shorts, and a tee-shirt is recommended. Bright colors for safety are advised. 


If you have them, we also advise the following:

  • cap
  • sun glasses
  • runner's belt to hold valuables
  • water bottle
  • other weather-dependent items (see list to the left)
