summer in full effect

#MTM #chopwoodcarrywater #WILDDOGS ⬈🝚x🝚 #rememberthegoal #discipline #edify

Week 5 and summer running is heating up, literally and figuratively.  Make sure you are adjusting paces for heat and humidity.  For those on schedule, add a second aerobic threshold run (aka Ae T or easy tempo) to the weekly training for both Tue and Fri.  For anyone slightly behind schedule, only one aerobic threshold should be completed on either Tue or Fri.  The rest of your running for the week remains easy, 60-65%.  Strength & conditioning continues, as does the Thursday 6-8 x 60-80m hill sprints.

Incoming first-year/transfers: move-in Sat-Sun, August 15-16
Returning Students: return Mon-Tue, August 17-18

Physicals for new people and for returning will be Tue, Aug 18.
Year-Beginning/Team Meeting will be Wednesday, Aug 19.
First practice will be in the AM of Thursday, Aug 20

Both the team and GTAA will have functions during the following week before school starts.  Before you make any other plans for this week, make sure you clear with coaches first. If you know of any conflicts, make sure you notify coaches as soon as possible

As always, if unsure about anything, or have any questions, reach out.
