The Swagger Sprint took place this morning with 10 pax including 1 FNG competing to test their abilities. This workout will reoccur in the future to see a progression of work put into the run.
Conditions: 67° and 84% humidity
The Thang:
- Departed Blockbuster with 9 pax headed to the track at Crossroads Middle School
- Upon arrival, conducted our routine deep stretch prior to hitting the track for speed work
- Pax #10 arrived to even out the teams that would be formed for the relay
- 50 meter high knees followed by 50 meter butt kicks
- 100 meters at 80% followed by 100 meters of jog, recover
- 100 meters all you got while observing other runners to pair up with
- Running pairs were matched then counted off 1, 2 to form two-five man relay teams
- 5 x 100 meter relay for 1,600 meters
- Return to Blockbuster with the goal to have a negative split

Moleskin:
Great work by everyone who participated. One pax said this was the best speed work to date.
