SUMMER TRAINING will start on June 15 at 8 a.m. at Smithfield (Blacksbrug).
The Summer Training program is a 6-to-8 week program with workouts and runs six
days/week (Monday through Saturday). Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays we will meet
at Smithfield Plantation, do a workout and then move to The Weight Club for
weight lifting. Tuesday and Saturday runs will be at Pandapas Pond, and the
Thursday workouts will rotate between various locations, including Brown
Farm, the trail at the top of Preston Forest and the Blacksburg High School
track. (We will not be lifting at The Weight Club on the first Monday
meeting.)
Please park in the Cage parking lot for the Smithfield workouts (there is an
opening in the fence at the very back of the middle of the lot). If you are
not a member of The Weight Club, you can lift there with the summer running
program for $2.00/visit. Water (and sometimes Gatorade) will be available
at all workouts, but please remember to bring water and a snack. If you plan
on lifting at The Weight Club, please bring a clean pair of shoes so ?that
we don't track grass into their facility.
If you have any questions, please e-mail James DeMarco
or Ingrid Burbey.
