Saturday Afternoon Jogs
This invitation to participate in "Saturday Afternoon Jogs" is for all rowers, parents, siblings, friends, and supporters of the Niskayuna Varsity Boy's team.
For the rowers, the purpose behind the SAJs is cross-training and endurance building. To be fast and first across the finish line, the varsity boys will need to have a well-developed aerobic base. Long-distance rows during practice, complemented by these 3 to 6 mile jogs on the weekend, will help bring us to the necessary level of fitness.
For everyone else, this is your excuse to get in some exercise, run through the neighborhoods, traverse the paths along the river, and be a part of Niskayuna Rowing.
Because we are not a cross-country team, the pace will not be aggressive; but you can always slow down (or speed up) to meet your personal needs. I will announce the time and location of our rendezvous, along with the intended route, every week on the blog and via email. Most runs will start around 2:30pm with one or two exceptions.
I hope to see many of you each Saturday.
