 I want to add in a beautiful quote from Coach Emily in Lander.
"We have plenty of work ahead of us. Renew your focus. Recognize that you can make endless improvements. Be humble and work hard EVERY SINGLE DAY!  That doesn’t mean work to exhaustion, this means to do your best work at every training session. If it is a distance day, really take it slow; see if you can v2 in slow motion - it is harder than you think. Can you hit every transition perfectly? In slow motion? When it is interval day, really push your limits. Don’t leave anything behind. Focus on the basics and perfect them. This is what makes you progress. This is how we improve."

With that being said, here is our plan for practice this week.
