Outdoor Workout Update:
When: Sunday May 22 at 9:00am
Where: Temescal Canyon Gateway Park, Pacific Palisades. What: This is a popular hiking loop with great views of the ocean on clear days, a seasonal waterfall, and a densely wooded canyon. The 2.5 mile loop starts out on Temescal Ridge Trail, climbing almost 1,000 feet in the first mile. 
Directions: From Santa Monica, drive north on Pacific Coast Highway (1) for 2.6 mile to Temescal Canyon Road and turn right.  You will approach the Park entrance where Temescal Cyn and Sunset intersect.  You can either park inside the park for $7.00, or park for free on Temescal Cyn and walk into the park.  We will meet up at the first parking lot of the park.
What to Bring: Whatever you like for a day hike.  Water, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen…etc.  We recommend trail running shoes.  It’s a fast pace up the mountain but if you prefer hiking boots that will do just fine.

Warm Up for the 5K Run/Walk with Fitness Instructor Tina Angelotti

Posted by on December 1, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

Fitness Instructor Tina Angelotti will be leading the warm up for the 5K Run/Walk at 7:45 am.

Why should you warm up? According to Wikipedia:

Athletes not only warm up to physically prepare their bodies for training or competition but also to mentally warm themselves up. Warm ups are a crucial part of performance. If completed correctly they enable the body to perform at its peak performing ability at the current time. … A warm up should be specific to the task required to perform in order to activate the correct energy systems and prepare the correct muscles. There are many beneficial effects from warm ups including:

  • Increased heart rate. This enables oxygen in the blood to travel faster meaning the muscles fatigue slower, also, the synovial fluid between the joints is produced more to reduce friction in the joints, the capillaries dilate and it lets more oxygen travel in the blood.
  • Higher temperature in the muscles. This decreases the thickness of the blood-letting the oxygen travel to different parts of the body quicker, it also decreases the viscosity within the muscle, removes lactic acid, lets the muscles fibres have greater extensibility and elasticity and an increase in force and contraction of muscles.

Don’t forget to sign up because online registration ends this Friday.
