You’re Tough Enough!

So far we have 3 — maybe 4 — peo­ple com­mit­ted to the BC4C Tough Mud­der team. Come on, tough guys (and gals)! We’re all tough enough for any­thing. And, just to assuage any fears, the point of the race is to get through it as a team, with every­one help­ing every­one else. This is not a speed race… it’s a “let’s all get through this together” race. So, now, who else is in?

Join the BC4C team dur­ing the registration:

Team name: BC4C
Pass­word: bewelldogood

SIGN UP NOW!

We’re cur­rently sched­uled for Sun­day at 11:20, but we could switch to Sat­ur­day if we get some more Mud­ders and the major­ity rules.

---

There’s also some BC4C inter­est in the Spar­tan race. Check it out and let’s see if we can get a BC4C Spar­tan team together!

---

And, of course, we have a BC4C team form­ing for the Pub­lix Geor­gia Marathon/Half. The team name is Boot Camp 4a Cause. You do not need a pass­word to join.

   Super speed­ies, we cov­ered 4.18 miles today, not count­ing front to backs. Great job on con­quer­ing the hills I threw at you.

   I men­tioned it in my com­ment on Friday’s blog, but we do have a BC4C team for the Pub­lix Marathon/Half. Team name is Boot Camp 4a Cause, no pass­word to join, so look for it if you still haven’t signed up.

   Thanks for the reminder, Leigh. I added it to the post.

   Speed­ies you ran 3.5 miles after the warmup, that does not include any of the front to backs which so many of you did so it might have been close to 4 for some of you.

   Pretty amaz­ing!

   I always enjoy run days — thanks to all the train­ers for all the thank­less work you do to make this such a great expe­ri­ence for the rest of us.

   thx for the fast run this morn­ing leigh, robin, bran­don, mary, and booties!

   i signed up for the half! the first one in a bunch of years so i’m excited! as far as the train­ing sched­ule that ME posted on the bc4c run­ning FB page, should we be try­ing to squeeze in the speed work and tempo run­ning on our own, or is boot­camp going to be enough dur­ing the week?

   I’m sec­ond guess­ing my pledge to join in on the Tough Mud­der after read­ing the course descrip­tion! I’m not so excited to run through live wires!! WHO DOES THAT? The rest of the course sounds like a breeze.… IF IT WAS IN JULY!!

   Thanks for the tough course today Leigh, it was a great run and the super speed­ies are so strong, it’s a great feel­ing to just keep up with them!!

   I too am con­fused about the sched­ule for our run­ning program!

   Yes great job today super speed­ies, way to hang in there Wendy and nice to see you back today Robin!!! we have missed your perky per­son­alty and encour­age­ment.
   I will talk to R about me doing the Tough Mud­der but if the baby is born on that day I will need a new place to live, any­body have a spare bed­room or dog house??

   Hi every­one. With the run­ning sched­ule, I think we’re going to do the tempo runs on Wednes­day morn­ings (b/c we’re usu­ally not boot­camp­ing). The sprints you can do on your own as you see fit. If you’re doing boot­camp, you don’t really need to do them, but if you want that lit­tle extra speed­work, you can add it to the mix.

   Make sense?

   M.E.

   Just my two cents on top of M.E.‘s: The full train­ing sched­ule is meant to help achieve a goal time. If you aren’t out to reach a time spe­cific goal, you can pick and choose a lit­tle with the mid week runs. Boot camp will play a large role in your over­all fit­ness, so I wouldn’t worry too much about get­ting in both runs every week. I would try to get at least one run in each week on top of the long run.

   This pro­gram is designed to com­bine run­ning 3 days a week with cross train­ing, which boot camp should be con­sid­ered. Most of our work­outs tend to include run­ning in some form or fash­ion. My advice is to take advan­tage of that as much as you can. Push­ing your­self a lit­tle harder at camp will pay pretty big dividends.
