June 21- Meditation with Dr.Pete

Fri, 21 Jun 2013 00:00:00 GMT

Friday, June 21, 2013 7-8pm
Meditation comes in a lot of shapes, sizes, and varieties. While it can be a spiritual practice, it certainly doesn’t have to be. At its simplest, it is a form of being aware of one’s inner landscape and surroundings on a moment-by-moment basis. It is a skill that is cultivated over time. What is challenging, yet beautiful, is that there is no right or wrong way to meditate. It is simply a practice. Most of our programming incorporates meditation at some level as a means to support inner peace, emotional and mental balance, and self-awareness, which is the foundation of all true paradigms of wellness. At Wellness 360, meditation is taught in a completely secular way, and is compatible with any faith or spiritual tradition. In fact, we strongly encourage anyone to explore meditation as a way to deepen one’s own experience in any way he or she sees fit. Event Details

June 21, 22, 24, 28 & 29- Dead Man's Cell Phone by Sarah Ruhl

Fri, 21 Jun 2013 00:00:00 GMT

Friday, June 21, 2013 - Saturday, June 29, 2013 8pm
Dead Man’s Cell Phone by Sarah Ruhl Despite dying an ordinary death in an ordinary café, Gordon Gottlieb was no ordinary man. Of course, we might never have known if Jean had not answered (and kept) the dead man’s ringing phone. Now, in a surreal journey through the absurd sides of grief and love, Jean is determined to make Gordon the man she believes he always should have been. She soon learns that righting Gordon’s wrongs, comforting his family, and answering his calls may turn out to be more soup than she can slurp. Jean has two things going for her – a good heart and a dead man’s cell phone - both are about to get her into a lot of trouble. Playfully asking, “Where do we go when someone else dies,” the metaphysical pairing of Gordon and Jean leads to laughs and love, while questioning our ability to truly connect. Event Details

June 28- Meditation with Dr.Pete

Fri, 28 Jun 2013 00:00:00 GMT

Friday, June 28, 2013 7-8pm
Meditation comes in a lot of shapes, sizes, and varieties. While it can be a spiritual practice, it certainly doesn’t have to be. At its simplest, it is a form of being aware of one’s inner landscape and surroundings on a moment-by-moment basis. It is a skill that is cultivated over time. What is challenging, yet beautiful, is that there is no right or wrong way to meditate. It is simply a practice. Most of our programming incorporates meditation at some level as a means to support inner peace, emotional and mental balance, and self-awareness, which is the foundation of all true paradigms of wellness. At Wellness 360, meditation is taught in a completely secular way, and is compatible with any faith or spiritual tradition. In fact, we strongly encourage anyone to explore meditation as a way to deepen one’s own experience in any way he or she sees fit. Event Details

June 28- Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame

Friday, June 28, 2013 7pm
Prominent members of the Hall of Fame include former University of Louisville coach Howard Schnellenberger, New York Giants quarterback and Morehead State University graduate Phil Simms, and the late Lenny Lyles, defensive back for the Baltimore Colts and San Francisco 49ers. Last year’s inductees were Mo Moorman, Dan Neal, Bubba Paris, Chris Redman and Rob Bironas. The organization’s selection committee has chosen inductees each year since 2003. The official 2013 induction ceremony, the Game Day Spectacular, will take place on Friday, June 28 at the Louisville Palace. The two-day celebration will also include a golf scramble, ring ceremony and other activities for attendees in Louisville. Tickets for the ceremony will cost $25, $50 and $75 and will be available online at a soon to be announced date. On the preceding day, Thursday, June 27,the Game Day Live Preview will occur at Fourth Street Live in downtown Louisville. Fans will have the opportunity to see football legends and Legendary football players and get a taste of Game Day Spectacular. The event at Fourth Street Live will be free and open to the public. “This year we have created an exciting way for everyone to experience what the Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame is all about,” said Frank Minnifield, Executive Director of the Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame. “Game Day Live Preview will provide an eye-opening experience for the community and offer a glimpse of the Game Day Spectacular, when we officially induct these incredible players.” The Kentucky Spinal Cord Injury Research Center at the University of Louisville was chosen as this year’s beneficiary. Over the years, numerous football players have sustained spine and brain injuries, making the choice of the organization a natural fit as well as a personal one, according to Minnifield. "The Kentucky Spinal Cord Injury Research Center is honored to be the recipient of funds raised at this extraordinary Hall of Fame induction," said Dr. Scott R. Whittemore, scientific director for the center. "These resources will help to advance the science we work with every day that can make a marked difference in the quality of the lives of not only athletes, but people all over the world recovering from a spinal cord injury. We are thrilled to be a part of these events." During the Game Day Spectacular induction ceremony, The Blanton Collier award will be presented to the Harbaugh Family - Jack Harbough, and his two sons, John and Jim Harbaugh. As coaches of this year’s Super Bowl match-up teams (San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens), the two brothers are the first in history to be coaching opposing teams in the game taking place in New Orleans on Sunday, February 3. Jack Harbaugh played college football for the Bowling Green State University Falcons from 1957–1960, where he was a three-time letterman. In his junior year, the Falcons finished the season 9–0–0 and were named the small college division national champions. Harbaugh played for one year, 1961, in the old AFL for the Titans of New York. John Harbaugh is the head coach of the Baltimore Ravens. Previously, he coached the defensive backs for the Philadelphia Eagles and served as the Eagles special teams coach for nine years. Harbaugh and his younger brother, San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh, are the first pair of brothers to serve as head coaches in NFL history. This year, Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame member George McAfee will also be honored during the Game Day Spectacular induction ceremony. McAfee was born in Corbin, Kentucky and played college football at Duke University. He played running back for the Chicago Bears (1940-1941, 1945-1950). Nicknamed “One-Play McAfee” he was known for explosive speed. He passed away in 2009. University of Louisville head football coach Charlie Strong and University of Kentucky head football coach Mark Stoops will both serve as co-chairs of this year’s event. In addition, the 2012 All Commonwealth Collegiate Team was announced at the press conference, including Defensive Player of the Year Zack Autenrieb, and Offensive Players of the Year Teddy Bridgewater of the University of Louisville and Larry Warford of the University of Kentucky.

Track Tuesday!

Tue, 04 Jun 2013 00:00:00 GMT

Tuesday, June 04, 2013 - Tuesday, February 24, 2015 7:00pm
What is Track Tuesday? Typically, we do two types of “speed” or “track” workouts. One would be pace oriented, meaning we will be in a 70 to 80% threshold type of run. This would be closest, or should be, to race approach. We pay close, close attention to our pace and we check splits sometimes every 200m. Variation should be no more than a couple or so seconds per effort. The other type of workout we do are 90 to 100% effort. These are faster than race pace almost a “I wish” pace. These require more recovery and really push the personal tachometer (i.e. heart rate). The key to which one we are doing is the amount of recovery. If your heart rate is getting back down to zone one, then that’s a complete recovery, thus the efforts should be faster than race pace. If your heart rate is only dropping to zone 2 or 3 (15% less than the effort), then that would be a pace workout. You can manipulate each workout to which of those you want just by increasing or decreasing the pace of the recovery. What else to know about Track Tuesday: Trying to figure out how fast to go? Check out our pace chart PDF/ EXCEL. Track etiquette has faster folks on inside lanes and working outward — this way nobody gets run over. Anyone of any ability can come to Track Tuesday! Don’t be afraid to ask questions. We’ve all been there. When you first start speed sessions, we recommend doing half the repetitions for the first few weeks. Please bring your own water!
