Well the Expo was a fantastic day! We had some 90 people head out on the 12 mile walk led by the hotties and thankfully the weather held out this time. Sandy & Tanzeem, the pins you made were a huge hit not just with the walkers but with the Sports Basement staff. Sandy, Sarah, Phil & Eric. Thanks for always giving 110% to the event and to our walkers.
I haven't heard from Andrea but I am sure you all had yet another super spectacular 12 mile walk on Sunday in the gorgeous weather!
Back to Back Walks are scheduled from now until the Avon Walk! Some new walkers have asked "why walk on both days?" The first reason is is get your body used to walking on two days to replicate the event itself. It is also a way to gradually increase mileage to approximate what you will walk on the event. You will notice every other weekend the mileage gets higher. The weekends in between are endurance building weekends with 12 mile hilly walks. The hottie training walk plan is set based upon the following:
Saturday: Mileage building day. This long day is essential - and you should try to walk the entire distance with only short breaks
Sunday: Moderate distance day. This is a recovery day, but also will show you the effects on your muscles and feet on walking the day after your long distance day.
Next Week's Walks:
Sat 4/28 - 16 miles - meet at 6:30 am - Warming Hut RSVP led by Sandy
Sat 4/15 - 10 miles - meet at 7:45 am - Warming Hut RSVP led by Andrea
