More Workouts and Descriptions

Welcome aboard to those who are following along or coming to the Cal track for workouts. Though we will continue to meet at 5:30 to warm-up and start our workouts at 6:00 p.m. sharp on Mondays and Thursdays, we could have an issue with lighting on Monday nights until daylight savings (so eat your carrots?). The light switch box was padlocked last night without warning. The tennis courts will offer minimal lighting and Mark Jellison, who teaches a paid Cal fitness + conditioning class, plus the Cal triathlon team also need those lights on, so I'm thinking (optimistically) this situation might be rectified soon. Worst-case scenario, we deal with it for w few weeks as the days get longer...I don't think it's prudent to relocate the workouts for 6-7 weeks, we'd lose a lot of continuity there.

  • Monday Jan. 25
