Today (Tuesday) when I started out, I had planned a track session to work on leg turnover. Let’s see, do about a three mile warm up, hit the track for a couple of sets of 200s to churn the legs and get that lactic acid burn we all love to feel, and then do a final 4 miles to cool down.
I got through the three mile warm up. But when I reached the track, I saw that the local middle school Girls Track Team had taken it over. Actually, it could have been the soccer team or lacrosse team for all I knew. I saw a lot of young girls milling about on the track, a bunch of parents on the bleachers, and lots of red cones. No one was running on the track so it must have been an orientation. However, I didn't feel like being a mook, going over and saying, "Excuse me. Since you guys aren't running today, could you all move over to the bleachers? I want to use
your track to run a couple of 200s". Yeah, real mook material here.
