"There are definite benefits to being able to suffer and push yourself alone"

While we continue to adjust to a constantly changing environment, it has been SO impressive to see the way everyone has continued to be intentional about their progress!  Most have been in touch, and it is ok that some have not.  We know everyone has a lot to adjust to.  Some people have started using the blog comment section to communicate training info, any way you want to communicate is fine. We appreciate you all, encourage you to communicate, and hope you are staying in touch with each other.  Recommended workouts are listed below, but as mentioned last week, now is a great time to substitute time trials for the workouts.  It's simple, pick a distance, any distance, find a track or measurable loop, and give it your best effort.  A few caveats...finding a track is a challenge, generally going early morning or early evening, 7am or 7pm for example, is probably your best opportunities.  We discourage group time trials, particularly group gatherings.  Small groups of 3-4 people or solo efforts are best.  By the way, bonus points to anyone who knows where the quote in the blog post title came from.  Some time trials took place last week and the result were awesome!  ***Lastly, school starts back this week, five weeks to go, let's finish the semester strong!
