Dedication in action — with the Queens College track buried under six inches of snow, I and friends shoveled out a full lane over two hours just to get in a set of 2K repeats.
What do you do when you have a track workout but the track is covered in 6 inches of snow? You shovel it.
Thanks to the guys at Queens College, especially Joe & Max, we were able to clear out a full lane in just over two hours.
Then I went ahead and did 2k repeats with 80 seconds rest.
This was fun 🙂
Have you ever gone out of your way to get a workout done?
