Hi all –

October is over and I am back from the month-long vacation (or so it felt) – in Hawaii and Mexico. I thank you all for your patience and look forward to starting the 2012 season with you all today. What does that mean? While some of you still have a few A events ahead, many of us are starting our build and progression to 2012 as of today, Nov. 1. Many of you have different goals and events, but the time for a great aerobic platform begins now, with strength work and metabolic efficiency via aerobic training. This season, and how I Rx the coaching protocol will be different than any of the 12 previous years I have been coaching. Not all of you will be doing strength, but all of you will be working off an incredible aerobic capacity as you head into your different A events of 2012. I look forward to next season being our best ever and will be starting your Annual Training Plans this week. If workouts are not updated yet – I will get there throughout this week. Continue to send me your race plans, goals and any other updates needed in the planning of the next 16 weeks.

Thanks!

Chris
