Team Trask: Week 1

1
Written by Catherine

Welcome to 2014!  

According to Sunrun.com, we are 110 days from the Vancouver Sun Run. Lots of time to train for Team Trask Family Sun Run!  I plan on posting weekly what the training workouts are for the 10km walk training program.  They start out gradually, and over the 110 days the distance will feel more doable and fun instead of daunting.   Feel free to comment on your training and how the week is going in the comments section.

Here is a preview of the course:

  1. I am really enjoying my walks, it feels great to put one foot in front of the other, and process my day, one step at a time.

    I have been enjoying breaking-up my work day, when I can, and getting a little energizing lunch-time walky in, or sometimes I get a post work, evening walky in. It feels awesome!

    I am stoked for family sun run/walk time!

    Thank you for all your inspirational, and organizational efforts!

    Love,
    Elizabeth
