Week 2 XC Training Schedule 7/15-721

We had an awesome showing for our first week of summer practices. A lot of new faces, which is very exciting to see! Our first week of summer training was pretty mellow, mainly to make sure everyone eases into their training for the season. In Week 2 we will start to add some light intensity to start getting our leg turnover primed and ready for the season. Please do your best to get your runs in on your own on the days we don’t meet or if you can’t make it to voluntary practices. If you are having trouble getting out of bed in the mornings to get to practice. Just remember that success in the Fall is forged in the Summer. You will not regret getting the work in with your teammates first thing in the morning, and it will pay off! See you all nest week!
