Hi Folks,
SAT HR/XT are on, starts 8 am>
Let’s hope the windy days begin to ease up as we tackle this week’s workouts; your best bet is to exercise during the morning hours. We are now reaching the end of May; with Memorial weekend coming up you can get in some solid training and still have relaxing time
. The usual focus during June is our beloved Dipsea Race which has been postponed until November. This gives you extra months of training to earn that PB on the Dipsea with likely cooler weather. Our Saturday workouts will help you prepare for this quad killer course.
