When our program is closed use this time to take a long walk, jog, or practice your 1.5 mile run. Another excellent option is called trail running. Instead of running on the track or road try running "off road." Fairfield has many open space areas that offer excellent trail running options. If you are looking for a real challenge try running on the beach - this time of year is perfect for a beach run. Vary your stride, your speed, and the type of sand you are running in to increase the challenge of your work out. The hard sand near the water is easier to run on, the soft sand above the high tide line is more difficult.
Track, road, trail or beach - go for a run and enjoy this day.
Some resources available - The Fairfield Fitness Council created this wonderful guide to walking which includes a suggested walking route - find additional information at: http://www.fairfieldct.org/fitnesscouncil-walk.pdf
