Training By The Bay
The good part of running an indoor bootcamp is that we don’t have to put up with bad weather. However, yesterday we got outdoors for some outdoor training. I sure do love to get outside when the weather is nice!
This session we met at Seal Point Park along the 3rd Ave waterfront in San Mateo. We ran stairs, did bodyweight rows on the bars near the water, huffed-and-puffed all the way up the stairs with brutal bunny-hops, and did a challenging but fun partner workout on the fake grass. I love the smell of fake grass in the morning (or evening)!
Now that it’s summertime, we will be getting outdoors more often. Here’s some of the cool places we can go!
- Central Park in San Mateo. How cool would it be to run through the park, do sand-sprints, work out on the monkey bars, and stop in at the Japanese Tea garden to meditate at the Koi pond afterward!
-Leo Ryan Park in Foster City. This place has the most awesome outdoor auditorium with large stairs and fake grass where we can do ab-work, push ups, and stair-drills. Afterward, we can run alongside the water on the wooden boardwalk by the gazebo!
- Coyote Point Park in San Mateo. Here we can run steep hills along the cliffside with a view of the rugged Bay waters. Then we can do lunges until we drop out by the yacht club! That’s my idea of a fun time!
If you have any other ideas, I’d love to hear about them! Roy and I are looking forward to a great summer with you!
