Day 044 - Pre-race preparation

WU + Stretch. Run: 55 min. easy. Walking lunges, push-ups, side lunges, pull-ups        Training via ActiveMail

This week, make a list of goals for the race. Write down your personal goals and then your collective team goals. Some guidelines for team goals and perceptions:



- Create some tangible time goals, given the slowest member of your team. Allow these to be guidelines for food and water intake, but they are not written in stone-adventure racers are adaptable to changes.

- What are the motivations for the team in doing the event? This can be anything from having fun and building toward a longer adventure race, to moving through the course as efficiently as possible.

- Are you willing to accept that your teammates are different from you in how they deal with stress and discomfort? This is an important question that should be explored to discover how you will deal with differences.

Share these goals and answers with all on your team.



Today's Workout:

WARM UP and STRETCH

RUN: 55 minutes, very easy, at PE 6

Walking lunges: 2 sets, 15 strides each

Push-ups: 2 sets (Do 3 less than the maximum you can do.)

Side lunges: 1 set, 20 strides

Pull-ups: 2 sets, as many as you can do

Walking lunges: Take long steps and lunge down to 90 degrees at the knee joint with each step. Keep you upper body tall and move your arms as you would in a normal running stride (opposite arm/leg extended).

Side lunges: Wide step to the side then squat low to a 90-degree angle at the knee joint. Push up and shuttle to the side to initiate the next step out. There is a slight hop and shuffle to create this action and go into the next lunge. Alternate starting legs on each set.
