May 16, 2006 FIRST TEAM PRACTICE
Happy Birthday to my big brother!
Central Park
First whole team practice. There were over a hundred people who showed up for this practice. I couldn't believe it.
Our workout today, consisted of running around the reservoir. TWICE! Isn't that like 8 miles or something? (the reservoir loop is 1.5 miles) Easy enough right? Ha! The training part of today's workout was to work on arms. Every three lamp posts, we're supposed to run with exaggerated arm motions (swinging really fast or swinging really high).
When you swing your arms fast, your legs go faster. When you swing your arms higher, your stride gets longer. Go figure.
I was worn out by the time I finished my warm up. Apparently I have to start out much more slowly. I had to slow down quite a bit, but I finished the workout.
