Jennifer Fernandes and Her Friend Chrissy Want To Get You Off The Couch And Running!

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey,
We have met a few times through our mutual friends Steph and Randy O’Neil as well as my dad Steve Curcuru.  I am trying to get the word out about a great program my friend Chrissy and I have been doing through the YMCA here in Gloucester and I thought your readers might be interested in it.
Chrissy and I are both mother’s of 3 children each, who met at the Cape Ann YMCA.  We both started running for the first time just a few years ago.  Chrissy has completed 4 marathons, I have run 2, training for my 3rd in October.  We trained and ran the Boston Marathon together this past April.  
In the Spring we were approached by the Y to start a Couch to 5k program.  We had 16 people sign up for an 8 week program that ended with them all successfully running the Fiesta 5k.  During July and August we have been training 20 people made up of new runners as well as runners from our Fiesta 5k program for the 7k run on the Monday of Labor Day.  In September we have two new programs we are starting.  Another Couch to 5k program to run the Salem Witch City 5k at the end of October.  And then a program called Run Fit which will have workouts geared toward the novice runner to improve their running strength, endurance and speed. Training and topics will include: nutrition, hydration, strength training, stretching, injury prevention tips, mental training and cold weather training.  Our hope with this class to help runners reach their next goal whether it be a 10k, 1/2 marathon, marathon or just become a better runner.
We would love any help you could offer to get the word out.  After Run Gloucester this past weekend, we think their are many out there inspired to start running or run better and we would love to help out.
Thanks,
Jennifer Fernandes

ESPN Features Gloucester High Football Summer Training Program On Good Harbor Beach

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

GLOUCESTER, Mass. — It’s 6 a.m. on a Wednesday at Good Harbor Beach in Gloucester, and 80 or so groggy athletes come stumbling over the wooden bridge and over the dunes. Their half-open eyes look toward the harbor, which is covered in a pea soup fog. The horizon’s a seamless coat of gray, merging sea and sky into one. It seems you can swim in the air it’s so humid.

Some of the teenagers are wearing T-shirts with the words “Dedication Leads to Domination” spelled out in maroon letters on the back. They wear them like badges of honor. It’s proof positive they endured last summer’s challenge.

Now they’re back for more.

Gloucester athletes training on the beach

Scott BarbozaRunning is still a big part of the Gloucester summer training program, but it has evolved into so much more than that.

Every summer since 1995, Gloucester assistant football coach Mike Lattof has led the Fishermen through an offseason workout program. Starting in July and ending a couple of weeks before the start of the fall athletic season, Lattof orchestrates a training regimen that aims to increase speed and agility.
