German for Endhaven

German for Endhaven

26ish PAX joined me for some long intervals at Swift this week.  (More on the “ish” later.).

The THANG:

5 minute intervals with 1 minute recovery were announced at the outset.  The 1 minute recovery registered some groans, but the PAX were assured that this was in fact the prescribed interval by Dr. Jack Daniels, and could be accomplished if the proper threshhold pace was maintained.   Then, off to the warm-up jog to the cut through between Community House and Ballantyne Commons.  Following some dynamic stretching, instructions were given to do commence the intervals down Community House Road to the light at “Eindhaven” Lane and back.  Despite the Germanic pronunciation, the PAX understood and off we went.  Most PAX got in a healthy 5 reps of the intervals before jogging back to COT.

Moleskin:

Great turn-out this morning with over 25 PAX in attendance.  I only wish my phone had not freaked out when I tried to save the voice memo with all of your names.  I tried to list as many as I could from memory, but I know I left names out.  Regardless, everyone gave a great effort on some tough intervals and they’ll be better for it.  Thank you gentlemen for the honor of leading.
