We would like to invite you to take part in the Trimarni 10-day Spring Challenge. We understand that you may be experiencing stress from the change in your active lifestyle, current work/family situation and life uncertainty during this public health crisis. During these times, we must all stay positive and support one another. Knowing that you will be adjusting to a temporary new normal, we want to help keep you accountable to daily exercise and motivated with your training. As athletes and fitness enthusiasts, we must remember we are strong. We adapt and we know how to overcome adversity. We are equipped with tools like determination, commitment, patience, optimism, accountability and overcoming setbacks. Even if your early season races are cancelled, triathlon continues on! Training is not just for race day. Keeping yourself active and healthy necessary for your mental and physical health. Don’t stop taking care of yourself and allow yourself to laugh, smile and have some fun. Through this challenge, you will prove to yourself that you can take on something big and finish it off. You will learn so much about yourself and discover strengths that you never knew were possible.
Not only will you improve your overall fitness for your upcoming races (yes, you will race again!), but you can enjoy this challenge knowing that others are participating in this challenge with you. The entire Trimarni team is taking part in this challenge, as well as coach Karel, Joe and me! You will find that some workouts suit your strengths and others will target your weaknesses. Either way, we are all in this together and we will all come out of this feeling accomplished.
Have fun with this training plan, adjust as needed and enjoy this incredible opportunity to do something for yourself that makes you feel grateful and thankful for your incredible body and love for the sport of triathlon.
