GLax Starts 2011 Spring Season with Fitness Testing

G-Laxers returned to campus last week and officially started their 2011 campagin on Sunday with their favorite fitness test:  the Gauntlet.  Because snow covered the campus and the track, the team ran the Gauntlet indoors on treadmills and stationary bikes.

The G-Lax Gauntlet includes:
1 mile
.5 mile
400 meters
200 meters
100 meters
*a 2:00 minute break in between each distance

Overall, the team improved their times significantly.  On their mile times alone, GLax ran 2 minutes 46 seconds faster!!

The most improved runner goes to Hannah "Kiki" Khin, who dropped 58 seconds off  her previous mile time!  (Maybe that's why she looks so excited in the picture above?!) 

Rookie Erin "Texas" Reifsnyder reps her home state as she zips a 6:42 mile.
