Lake Mayer Community Park is one of the most versatile parks in Savannah, GA. While I’ve just been using for its ~1.5 mile rubber track and fitness course, there is also a boat ramp, dirt bike course, tennis courts, etc etc. There is even a skate park in the works. The Lake Mayer Circuit Run is an easy way to try other exercises besides just running or walking.

Lake Mayer Circuit Run

Yesterday I ran 4.5 miles with circuit training the last 1.5 miles. The fitness course along the track makes an easy no-brainer circuit. You just stop at the station signs and do what it tells you to do, all equipment provided — jumping jacks, pull-ups, core work, etc.

Each station gives three levels of difficulties, whether it’s more jumping jacks or a longer wall sit. And then you can also vary difficulty by sprinting, running, or walking between the stations.

Some of the stations:

• Jumping jacks
• Stretches
• Jumps
• Pull ups
• Lunges
• Wall sit
• Push ups
• Balancing step ups
• Pull ups

It was 95 degrees out, but humidity wasn’t awful for a change.

Try the stations out and tell me what you think!
