Dirtbags! It feels like it's been a while since we did a pyramid.

So I propose we do the "Boat Launch Pyramid" this Thursday.

It looks like there may be a little snow falling later in the day, so I propose we keep it flat, and the new paved trail out towards Three Sisters from the Boat launch on Rundle Drive is as good a place as any.

If you are in the final stages of your marathon build, or if you've got a big three day block of training this long weekend, then feel free to do my favorite "Half-Assed-Dirtbags". I certainly will be, 🤣.

So, we should meet at 6PM at the Rundle Boat Launch. We'll get in a decent warm up with a few strides, then jump into the pyramids.

1 min hard (1 min recovery)
2 mins hard (1 min recovery)
3 mins hard (1 min recovery)
2 mins hard (1 min recovery)
1 min hard (1 min recovery)
We'll regroup, then repeat x 3 sets (that's 27 mins of hard work).
The short rest will necessitate keeping this one 'aerobic'.

Hope to see you all there, and I will encourage you all to join a few of us for a beer afterwards; after all, Friday is a stat!

The Forebay Peloton Workout, August 1, 2024

The Forebay Peloton Workout, August 1, 2024

It's a peloton style workout - we run in small, similarly paced groups in a line. The person at the back picks the pace up and runs to the front of the line where they drop in and ease off a touch. The next person at the back then runs to the front. On and on - you get the gist.
