Hopefully you all ran a 40 minute recovery on Friday.
On Saturday (14 July) we carpooled to Balboa Park (6th street side), did
a 3/4 mile warmup with strides, etc. Then ran from Juniper to El Prado
to the Water Fountain, left to the Jr High School, left to the Girl
Scout camp to the Bridal Trail, followed the Bridal trail to Snake, up
Snake, and back to to the dog park area... about 3 miles. Then we did 2 x
the 6th street hill (about .8 miles for one loop). After this we did 10
x 100 m strides on the grass, and finished off with a plank circuit.
Total distance was around 6 miles.
If you missed this workout try to do something similar to keep up with the others.
For those you who are not familiar with Balboa, the first 1.5 miles of the 3 mile loop below are pretty flat, then next mile is rolling, the last part (snake) is aptly named because the trail is shaped like a snake. Otherwise it'd be too steep to run up.... it's quite steep even with the curves. The 6th street hill part is a demanding climb of over 600 meters.
