Opinions should change
We’re in that season in the United States. Crazy season, where among many other things we get to hear about “flip flopping”. If anyone has ever changed their mind, that’s a terrible thing.
…Inspired by the Olympians?
What an Olympics it was! I hope you were able to enjoy it, I know I managed to watch almost the entire track and field program and it was fantastic!

I’ll highlight a handful of events (and one athlete) that I’m especially looking forward to but I’d encourage you to watch all of them.

So far, their coverage has been impressively comprehensive.

We all (hopefully) know that both your hard workouts and your easy runs/rest matter. The hard days are the stimulus for improvement but recovery is when the improvements happen so you need to make sure you’re recovering adequately.
