Couch to Sprint

How is your training going? We are down to 60 days, which is just over 8 weeks, to race day! Can you do 30 consecutive burpees? Do you think you have at least a fighting chance on every obstacle? Can you walk, jog, or run four miles?

There is still time to change your answers to YES!

We are on day 6 of the 31 day Spartan Couch to Sprint training plan. Recovery days are Wednesdays and Sundays. We are meeting today at 6:30 at the EHS track (although we can be flexible on both time and location).
