The threatened rain never materialized, but a bit of summer lingered with the humidity in the air. It was warmer than last week's Fall conditions as John Domico, Tom Cali, Lance Bland, Mike Weyandt, Jon Thurley, George Lesieutre, Ken Davis, Costas Maranas, Miles Smith, Randy Jepson, Rob Shaver, Esther Prins, Meira Minard, Michael Goldfine, Andy Maguire, newcomer Manish Kumar, and Marty Mazur headed for the track for the first workout of the Fall..
Several of the Track Crew were there just to get their clocks punched. At least a few are heading to the Wine Glass Marathon this weekend. Several others did some distance repeats in the outer lane. Fireman Domico hosed off the inner lanes as he did some maniacal and no longer necessary (for him) workout. Hopefully, John will find some later Fall race, like the NV Half, to take out his mOUnTaiNBACK training on. Bwana took the remaining few on a tour of the downward ladder: 1000-800-600-400-200. The point is to do each rep at a faster pace as the distance grows shorter.
The showing was light today. Maybe it's the Discovery runs that are taking away the Thursday crowd? Actually, no. Bwana was at that run and precious few other regular Trackers who were not there this noon showed up for the evening trainer. Ah, well. To those who did neither: It's YOUR teams that will suffer!
