30min Run, 30min Lift. Here's what to do
Often, we are limited on time with how much we can spend training. There are many times when we just have an hour but have to check multiple boxes.

5 Reflections from my 1st Sub 20min 5K
I finally did it! Broke the 20min barrier. I ran 19:56 during the P3R Turkey Trot. During my run & lift this morning I reflected on training and things that went well & things that could've gone much better.

Get Your Quad Healthy Today
A kiddo of mine pulled a quad muscle! After taking summer off for much needed rest, she jumped back into the gear having a great season with new PR's.
But she didn't heed to Fast Days Fast, Slow Days Slow - opting to run fast everyday. And well, it didn't workout.
So follow along as I tell you how we are helping get her back into running form!
