13 Week - Lander Race
A big shout out to those who did the Pole Mt. Suffle this weekend! It was so fun to see all the Hawaiian shirts out there in the blizzard!
This is a really pivotal part of our season. We have one last week before we really start to take the load off to peak. That means keep coming to practice, putting in the time and you will have a very strong peak at the end of the season!
Here is a great image showing super-compensation:
