Introduction
LA SERPIENTE!!! THE SNAKE!!! I introduced this route at La Luz the last time I Q’d. I love running hills! It’s a burner of a workout and it only makes you stronger and faster!!!
Warm-O-Rama
For Warm-o-Rama we started with 10 tapppy taps, then we were on the move. We moseyed to another corner of Lot X and knocked out Motivaters from 6! Then we moseyed over to the plaza and did hamstring stretches on the wall for a 10 count on each leg. Then we moseyed to first street to lay out our La Serpiente route.
The Thang
La Serpiente is a route that takes the pax up the side street hill, then over a block, then down the next street hill. We continued this “up-over-down” route all the way down to New York St. then retraced our path back the other way. Pax continue this route back and forth for as many laps in the time allowed. I nstructes the pax to concentrate on EFFORT. Whatever effort you put into the flats, match or exceed that effort on the uphills! LET’s GO! Back to the flags at 5:57 where we held plank for 1 minute. Then all the pax mosey back to pick up the 6. Then we held plank to 6:00. Recover Recover!
Circle of Trust
My COT focused on the value and importance of family. My eldest daughter got married last week and family came in from all over the country! If you have a family member that’s estranged from you, step up, be a leader and reach out to them. Reconnect! Life is too short to let greviences fester. Then I also focused on effort! Pax that run a 13min/mile give just as much effort as pax that run a 7min/mile. Sometimes more! We need to respect that! And encourage full effort from all pax. Whatever that “full” effort is.
Naked Man Moleskin
I like this La Serpiente route because it stays close to the flags AND as you retrace your steps you’re crossing paths with other pax. It’s alway good to take the opportunity to spur on and encourage your fellow pax to give maximum effort! Viva La Serpiente!!!
