* Happy HOA Week Endurance Athletes!!!

Many of you have been training with us in prep for this week. I am confident that you will see the benefits of your endurance training in your WOD’s this coming weekend. This week in class we will be spending a solid amount of time on mobility  and will be offering both SI and LI workouts in a “tapered” or scaled fashion for our HOA athletes. For those of you not competing we will still run class as normal and push you through the workouts with a higher intensity than our HOA athletes. Come out and run with us this week to keep your body active in prep for HOA.

Beautiful form last weekend during clinic #3! Thanks to all those who joined us for Parter Tosh last weekend.

The CFE HOA Training clinics are well underway and have been an awesome success so far. We have continued each week to work on improving our skills in running and also worked on our general endurance throughout a WOD. We hope you have all gained something from this time. This week we will meet Saturday morning at 8AM as usual for Clinic #4. Below you will find the WOD for Sat morning. A scaled version of the WOD will be available for athletes who are newer to CF. We will start with a brief warm-up run, review running drills and review the movements in the WOD below offering ways to scale for intensity and safety. CFE coaches Chad and KT will be your leaders for the clinic while Coach Elizabeth will be out “wogging” along side fellow CFE athletes at the Panther Run. We hope to see you at either event Saturday morning. 3-2-1 Run!
