Hi Y’all,
2019 is upon us and HAPPY NEW YEAR to you! Time can seemingly pass us by faster than we’re able to run and some of us probably wished we had the ability to hit the “STOP” on our own life. For those who have created New Year’s resolution(s), I wish you the very best in your journey to fulfill them for 2019. If your resolution is running, walking or exercise related, then I hope you’re able to do them with PARR.
We’re counting down the days and we only have two more long runs remaining in our official season. We are on the proverbial downhill and it’s primarily about staying fresh and not getting hurt the next few weeks.
If you received new shoes, clothes, socks, compression materials, hydration packs, gels/nutrition, etc. during the holidays, the next 14+ days is the time to try them or break them in. If you’re wondering if you should try a new GEL or powder, you should definitely try it during the next few days. It’s not a good idea to wear or try anything new on race day.
The deadline to register for the PARR party is this Saturday. We have to give the final number to the event venue so we can’t delay it after this point. I’ll say it one more time, we would love for you all to join us so please try to attend. It’s FUN.
