Warming Up

Ladies,

So today is beginning to feel a bit more like early summer. It was warmer and more humid, and when that happens you are going to feel it. It feels harder to breathe, to move, it's just... harder. Don't worry, that's normal. Some of you will be bothered more than others, and that's normal too.

Best thing to do is to hydrate all day long every day. Electrolytes are the key, and that means salt, magnesium, potassium, etc. Bananas are a good dietary source of electrolytes, but in general you want to take more salt in your diet.

I am splitting the group into differing plans because as much as possible we need to individualize training to fit your needs. We've been fortunate to have enough supervision to do this, so the plan would be to continue in that vein. What is important for us is that we know all the training you are doing outside of running with us. We need to know about injuries, or pain, or anything else that could impact your plan.

There will be times in your training you will be frustrated. That is normal. Things don't always go the way we plan or think they should. Keep at it, keep trying. Keep pushing. Keep coming.

We are still planning to have biking on Friday for those that are interested. Helmets!
