"Track" Night Tuesday
\*\*\*Note: We have temporarily moved off of the UMD Track and are meeting at Herbert Wells Ice Rink (Same location as Thursdays) for our speedwork.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
Join us for a structured speed workout!
If you are new to running, just getting back into it, or checking out the club for the first time, this a great first workout to join.
All paces and abilities welcome. A pre-determined workout will be announced at the beginning and participants can adjust the workout to meet their needs and level. Workouts are usually planned by time, rather than distance, which helps accommodate the wide variety of paces that we have and allows the group to stick together.
Warm-up starts at 6:30pm.
Children are welcome, if accompanied by a responsible adult.
**Parking information:** Free parking is available; park nearest the trail (farthest from the ice rink)

**Key Aspects:**
* **Origin:** The walk was initiated by monks from the [Huong Dao Vipassana Bhavana Center](https://www.google.com/search?q=Huong+Dao+Vipassana+Bhavana+Center&sca_esv=88967a97f71d192c&hl=en&source=hp&ei=WQlnafi5LPWz5NoPwrO1KQ&iflsig=AFdpzrgAAAAAaWcXaY2YxerYQCnaYyPDxGnEnebiLN0K&ved=2ahUKEwiU0s29h4qSAxW4FlkFHX9sJ0UQgK4QegQIAxAB&uact=5&oq=what+is+the+walk+for+pease+movement&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6IiN3aGF0IGlzIHRoZSB3YWxrIGZvciBwZWFzZSBtb3ZlbWVudDIHECEYoAEYCjIHECEYoAEYCjIHECEYoAEYCjIHECEYoAEYCkj_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_ZIHBDQxLjOgB5iSArIHBDM2LjO4B_AUwgcGMy4zMy44yAdegAgA&sclient=gws-wiz) in Fort Worth, Texas.
* **Purpose:** To raise awareness for peace, mindfulness, and compassion, not as a protest, but as a moving meditation.

* **Community Interaction:** They tie blessing strings (a simple thread) on supporters' wrists as tangible reminders of peace, fostering a connection between the journey and the individuals.
* **Online Presence:** The group actively shares updates, photos, and live maps on social media (Facebook), garnering significant support and media attention.
In essence, it's a walking meditation and grassroots effort to promote a message of inner and outer peace through personal example and community connection across the United States.
**Proper & Respectful Practice TO BE FOLLOW when meeting the Monks:**
**1\. Choose simple\, clean flowers \-** Fresh flowers without strong fragrance are ideal. Simplicity reflects sincerity.
**2\. Place them low\, not high \-** Gently place the flowers on the ground, never at head level or above the monk.
**3\. Do not block the path \-** Set the flowers slightly to the side or just ahead of where the monk will step, allowing him to pass naturally without changing his stride.
**4\. Kneel or bow if appropriate \-** If culturally appropriate, kneel or bow briefly after placing the flowers. Keep movements calm and unhurried.
**5\. Maintain silence \-** Avoid speaking, calling attention, or making eye contact unless the monk initiates it.
**6\. Step back mindfully \-** After placing the flowers, step back to allow space. Let the offering speak for itself.
**7\. Offer with intention\, "not expectation" \-** The true offering is your mindfulness and gratitude, not recognition.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Proper way to present your self to a Monk:**
To show respect in front of a Buddhist monk, it is generally recommended to **bow with your palms pressed together** (known as the *añjali* gesture or *wai* in Thai culture), which is a common and appropriate form of greeting and reverence. Full prostration (the "kowtow") is typically reserved for sacred objects like a Buddha statue during specific ceremonies, not as a casual greeting.
Here are the appropriate steps and considerations for greeting a Buddhist monk:
The Basic Greeting (Añjali/Wai)
1. **Bring your hands together, palm-to-palm, in front of your chest**. This gesture is called *añjali* (or *wai* in Thailand) and can be used as a greeting, a thank-you, or when speaking with the monk.
2. **Raise your hands** to a level appropriate for the monk's status.
* For a typical monk, the hands are often raised to the level of the lowered forehead, with the index fingers or thumbs touching the forehead.
* The higher the hands and the lower the bow, the more respect shown.
3. **Accompany the gesture with a slight bow of your head or from the waist**, keeping your back and neck straight.
4. **Avoid physical contact** such as shaking hands, especially if you are a woman, as many monks follow a strict code of conduct regarding physical contact with people of the opposite sex.
\* Deeper Expression of Respect (Prostration/Kowtow)
A more profound sign of respect, often referred to as kowtow in a general sense, is the full **prostration** (known as *krab* in Thai culture). This is typically done during formal ceremonies in a temple or shrine room:
1. **Kneel** on the floor with your body composed. Men usually sit on their heels, while women may sit with their legs tucked to one side.
2. **Bow forward**, placing your palms on the floor about six inches apart, and touch your forehead to the floor between your hands.
3. **Repeat this three times** to show reverence to the Triple Gem (Buddha, Dhamma, and Sangha).
4. Avoid pointing your feet toward the monk or a Buddha image while seated or prostrating, as this is considered highly disrespectful in many cultures.
**General Etiquette**
* **Address the monk respectfully:** Use titles such as "Bhante" (Pali for "Venerable Sir") or "Venerable". In some traditions, senior monks with over ten years of experience may be addressed as "Ajahn" (Thai for "teacher").
* **Dress modestly:** Ensure your shoulders, chest, and knees are covered when visiting a temple or meeting a monk.
* **Sit at a lower level:** If the monk is sitting, you should sit as well, avoiding sitting in a higher position than the monk.
* **Use both hands when offering something** and avoid passing items directly to a monk of the opposite gender; use a receiving cloth or place the item on a nearby surface instead.
* **Be mindful of your feet:** Never point the soles of your feet towards a monk or a Buddha image.

It's supposed to be in the upper 40s around midday on Wednesday. The ride is a 8.8 mile medium level ridden at a social pace (11-13 mph). This short route uses cleared trails, but the bike lanes on Veitch, Wilson, and Fairfax can have some blockages from either snow or parked cars. We will ride clockwise starting from Bluemont Park n the W&OD and exit the Custis Trail on Scott near Mom's and take the Veitch bike lane to Wilson stopping for our "Koffee Klatch" at For Five Coffee in Courthouse. After coffee we will ride the Wilson and Fairfax bike lanes and connect with the Bluemont Junction Trail at the Ballston Connector by the Beaver Pond and head on back to the Tennis Courts.
You are not required to drink or even like coffee.
