A: This is a fitness benchmark known as the Cooper Test. The goal is to run as far as you possibly can in 12 minutes. The distance you cover can be used to estimate your VO2 max, a key measure of aerobic fitness. We conduct this test on the third week of every quarter, allowing you to track your progress throughout the year. Q: What is 'plyometrics'? A: Plyometrics are jumping exercises designed to be explosive and powerful. They help build strength and power in your running muscles, which can translate to improved running economy and speed. Q: Is this session suitable for beginners? A: Yes, all are welcome. The run is a personal test, so you go at your own maximum effort. For the plyometrics, we encourage everyone to participate, but it's important to listen to your body. If you are new to this kind of exercise or feel you should sit out an exercise, please do. Q: How is the session structured and how long is it? A: The session lasts about an hour. We start with a 15-minute warm-up, followed by the 12-minute run test. After the run, we do a 20-minute plyometrics workout, followed by a cool-down. Q: Do I need any special equipment? A: No special exercise equipment is needed. However, you must have a way to time yourself for the 12-minute run. The timer on a phone or a simple watch is perfectly fine. Don't worry if you don't have a GPS watch to track your distance; your run host will provide a map of the track, and you can simply mark your finishing spot. Q: Is there a place to leave my bag? A: Yes. Most runners leave their bags together by the side of the track. However, this area is unattended. For valuables, we strongly recommend using the paid lockers available at the Sports Hub. Lockers near the stadium cost approximately $6 for 6 hours of use. Q: Are there toilets and water coolers nearby? A: Yes, the Sports Hub is well-equipped. There are water coolers and toilets accessible near the track. Q: What happens if it rains? A: We run on! The track is almost completely sheltered, so rain does not stop our session.

This month's prompt concerns the idea of the “warrior philosopher” (seemed appropriate in these times)--that is someone whose understanding of violence, power, and justice is forged through direct experience of war. We are looking at Major General Smedley D. Butler, a highly decorated U.S. Marine raised in a Quaker (pacifist) tradition who later became a prominent critic of American militarism (there is a wonderful biography of Gen. Butler called "Gangsters of Capitalism") Butler's argument in *War Is a Racket* (1935): that many U.S. interventions were driven less by national defense than by corporate and financial interests, with Butler portraying himself as an enforcer for business and Wall Street. We can consider the moral ambiguity of his insider critique—whether complicity strengthens or undermines credibility and also consider some of the concrete reforms he proposed (e.g., “conscript” capital before soldiers, restrict the military to coastal defense, and have only those who fight decide on war). Butler’s life arc clearly changed from pacifist upbringing to warrior to antiwar crusader—and asks whether true understanding of peace requires firsthand knowledge of war, and what that implies about the cost of suffering. So do we need to suffer to understand suffering? Do we have to experience war to appreciate peace? As one more question: in the movie "A Few Good Men" Jack Nicholson's character says that "you have the luxury of not knowing what I know" so do most of us go through life oblivious to real violence and suffering?
