Hey Folks!
Awesome weekend! I’m excited to say that the cert didn’t change a lot, but enough to be worth the refresher – I’m pumped to get back into the fundamentals and also for the next couple weeks of training. This week is another good week of grinding – though with less reps – which I’m sure you’ll be relieved to know 🙂
Hope you all crushed James Running Technique seminars and learned a tonne. Don’t stop there though – use the drills he taught you to help improve technique during any running WODs – even if ti means being slightly slower. Think, efficiency.
