Week 12 - Rest = Improvement

The number one factor in improvement is rest. We expose our bodies to training and then during rest the body adapts to the training. Occasionally, its important to take a down week. Lucky for us this week (Spring Break) is a great week for a down week. We are coming off a heavy weekend of racing and have a race on a Friday this coming week. So Tuesdays workout will be light and focused on getting more comfortable with the track since we are at River City High School. We will not have practice on Friday (due to Sheldon Invite) or Sunday (due to Easter). So please take a close look at this weeks schedule and plan to to get some easy running in on your own.
