Running

We have running ‘seasons’ in our facility based on the safety of running when there is snow and ice on the ground. Snow is gone, the parking lots have been swept of all the excess sand from over the winter and running ‘season’ is here.

Yes it’s still a little colder out, so dress accordingly.

The running distances are: And have been measured multiple times over the years. The inside of the facility doesn’t count as any distance for the run starts outside the door at the piece where the dark pavement means the white pavement. That is where we measure from.

100m is to the first fences at the end of our parking and back.
200m is around the corner to the second fence at Southwards and back.
400m is to the second patch in the pavement at Sidelaunch (use to be a speed bump) and back,
800m is out past Sidelaunch to the trail, hang a right down the trail a little to the fire hydrant and back.
1 mile is past the 800m fire hydrant all the way down the trail to the Georgian hose buildings driveway, turn around and back.

If you run the trail behind the gym:
200m is a loop, across the ditch down the trail to the left, at the fire hydrants turn back and run back to the gym.
400m is across the ditch right on the trail to the road and back.
800m is across the ditch left on the trail to the fork in the trail, and back.
1 mile on the trail is, across the ditch, right on the trail to the road, back on the trail to fork in the trail, back to the road, then back to the gym.

Running to the stop sign is not the 800m mark, you need to hang a right on the trail go to the fire hydrant and come back to the gym.

Running is fundamental. Ideally we want everyone running, we understand that some injuries don’t allow for it. But you are not, not running because you’re slow, or don’t like to run. We will scale your distance first so that you can run, or run/walk/run. If you’re unable to run due to an injury, the C2Bike is not your go to scale. Toe touches, the assault bike, rowing, etc. may be the options given as your scale. Remember, you come to us for fitness. Our goal is the betterment of your fitness. Our workouts are stimulus based and the C2Bike is not even remotely the same stimulus, so speak with your coaches before jumping on the C2Bike as it is not the go to scale.

Yeah for running ‘season’.
