Winter 2006 Training Schedule San Diego Street Elite

        San Diego Street Elite meets regularly throughout the week to train together. Besides the organized skates weekdays before or after work, some members who are unable to attend train independently elsewhere, but would always welcome the company of another skater. We rotate our weekend morning roadskates for variety. On weekends of races or special events or holidays, there may not be any weekend skates.
        If you'd like to join us, please call us to confirm a particular skate. Participation is usually lower in the winter with reduced daylight hours, cooler temperatures, and inclement weather.

Tuesdays
        Torrey Pines -- Starting from UCSD head north along PCH up the coast. Very hilly, but scenic and cool in the early-morning hours. 20 miles returning from Solana Beach. Skate away at 6:00am.
        Fiesta Island -- Skate multiple laps along the flat and fast road course before work around around Fiesta Island in Mission Bay. Meets at 6:00am.
        Lake Miramar -- An alternate day to skate for those wanting additional practice or can't make it on Thursdays. Approximately 8 miles per out-and-back lap, do more laps for more mileage. Meets at 5:00pm. This is a regular weekly event, no phone call necessary, but attendance is much reduced during the winter.

Thursdays
        Torrey Pines -- Starting from UCSD head north along PCH up the coast. Very hilly, but scenic and cool in the early-morning hours. 20 miles returning from Solana Beach. Skate away at 6:00am.
        Mission Bay to UCSD -- Starting from Mission Bay, skate a couple of laps around Fiesta Island and then head north to the north end of UCSD via the Gilman bike path. Approximately 25 miles round-trip. Meets at 6:00am.
        Lake Miramar -- If members can make it to the lake only one day a week after work, Thursdays is the day. Skaters start showing up as early as 3:30pm and are out until sunset. Most try to meet at 5:00pm. Approximately 8 miles per out-and-back lap, do more laps for more mileage. This is a regular weekly event, no phone call necessary, but attendance is much reduced during the winter.

This is the best skate for the beginning speed skater. Fast and fitness groups both meet at 8:00am in the Burger King parking lot as described in the Coronado Island skate. This is a regular weekly event, no phone call necessary.
