Five gathered under the stars for this week’s edition of Hoedown. We started with a mosey down Lindsay and circled up at the bottom for a warm up that included dead man hang, both wives, merkins, WW2s, flutter kicks, APBs, imperial walkers and SSHs. Being at the bottom of the hill, we needed to get back. We partnered up to head back up. P1 runs to the top of the hill and back down. P2 does bear crawl, lunges, polar bear and crab walk. Now back at the top, we headed over to the parking lot for 11s. Start with…

Lots of new roads were explored today. Here’s where: L on Pump L on Falconbridge to Ridgefield Reverso on Falconbridge R on Raintree L on Ridgefield L on Old Prescott Back to VSF MOLESKIN The consensus is that running sucks, but we should just do it.

The bell rang and five pax … no, actually six pax, because here comes Hitch right on Hitch Time, which is about 90 seconds behind the rest of us … no, actually seven pax, because we picked the Mayor up on Turn 3 of our first lap around the track … posted for the inaugural Tabata & Track workout at St. Christopher’s. It was Launch Day and yes, there was a Hitch. The track is kind of cushy compared to the middle school track where I ran the Charlotte version of this workout, and it definitely doesn’t overlook a garbage…
Where: St. Christopher’s track, Maple Ave. & Christopher Lane When: 0530, starting 10/7/24 Workout Name: TBD I successfully ran a workout on this format for the last several years in Charlotte and it attracted a small, loyal core of followers, so I’m going to transplant the concept to RVA. The structure is as follows: One, 4-minute Tabata / HIIT block with 8 cycles of 20 seconds of work, 10 seconds of rest. One “hot lap” around the track. Repeat 6 times. COT Within that format, there’s room for endless variation in terms of exercises. The first Tabata set is usually…
