The weather is starting to shift, but training will continue! Winter is one of my favorite times of year for training and I have all kinds of fun workouts for snow days and to help you learn to conquer the cold!
-Coach Daniel
WINTER POLICY:
Our winter weather policy is that I won’t let anyone training in conditions I wouldn’t train in myself. So even when there is snow, ice, wind chill or extreme cold temperatures unless informed of a cancelation classes will continue as planned, but if you don’t feel comfortable going out when conditions are bad let me know (ideally by Text Message) and you won’t be charged or owe anything. I want to challenge you and your children to improve, but I also want you to stay safe on the roads and in classes!
HEADLAMPS:
TRAINING (adult) Thursday morning 6:00 AM class require headlamps starting October 5th.
TRAINING (adult) Tuesday 5:30 PM will require headlamps starting October 24th.
SKILLS 6:00 PM classes and RUN COACHING Wednesdays 6:15 PM will require headlamps starting October 11th.
KIDS classes and mid-morning SKILLS classes will not require headlamps for the time being. The 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM KIDS classes may require headlamps at some point in the Winter season, but I will let everyone in those classes know in advance. I’ve often lightened the course with portable lanterns for the few days of the year when it gets really dark for those classes.
THE DESCENSION RECAP
These four took on The Descension challenge last week! Three finishers and a valiant effort from all. It was not an easy workout, but these four gave their very best and I couldn’t be more proud of them! We will be doing this challenge again in March during our Mountain March series. I can’t wait to see these four take it on again and see how much they’ve improved!
