Our 2nd week of practice has come to a close and we saw many great gains from our team. Almost all of our athletes who have come out to practice are still coming out, more athletes are reporting their workouts on the Week Report and a few have even started their Heart Rate Tracking. Just a reminder that all of things are critical to your improvement. And we really appreciate those who are taking the time to commit to improving themselves and our team. Your workout minutes for this week (Week 2) need to be updated by Sunday afternoon - and then after setting your goals for next week, you may clear off workouts on Monday (to make sure Coach has updated everything).
We still have about 5 spots left for High Altitude Camp - so talk with the coaches if you would like to fill in one of those spots. The final $35 (total of $85) for camp will be due the first week of July.
Kids' Club has been a great success! Thanks to each of you for your leadership and example to the kids you are working with. And thanks to those who are bringing treats… a reminder to those who haven't, please sign up to bring treats one day.
Finally, now that we are starting to get in a little better shape, you are going to have the opportunity to push yourself a little bit more. This is a great time to start to work up from the Beginner Level of workouts to Level 1 - when are you ready for this? Well, the best answer is when you can run a week or so of Beginner without walking. To progress between Levels, talk to the coaches, see what they think, what would be good about it, if you are ready for it. And then, when the time is right, jump back and forth between Levels for a week or two until you are fully ready to move to the next Level. Remember, right now the most important thing is to stay healthy - and to stay healthy you need to find that balance between running enough (consistently, 6 days a week) and not pushing too hard too early, you need to take care of your body with healthy food and good amounts of water, and enough sleep, stretching and rolling, and a positive attitude.
We are proud of how all of you are doing - keep it up!
p.s. Still waiting for someone to know all the names!
