Building blocks.

Here's to fantastic people. Here's to fantastic people with enough dedication to meet up at 8am on a Sunday to run.

And here's to those same fantastic and dedicated people who do all of that while pushing a stroller.

Seriously. Need some inspiration? Look no further than this amazing group.

We have now finished our first block of build weeks for this clinic; we increased our long-run time by fifteen minutes every week for three weeks and now we will have a rest week before starting to build once again. 

The Sunday long runs coupled with the mid-week workouts build strength and endurance. In the coming weeks we will also start adding speed work to our mid-week workouts and race-pace pickups into our long runs. The whole combination will slowly train the body - and the mind! - to push through and persevere on race day. We're off to a fantastic start!

Here's a bunch of photos from our last three long runs. :)
