Spring Week 8

5/17/2020

 
VIDEO RECAP

As we enter week 8 we close our our 2nd build phase it's impressive to see how far we have come since the start of the clinic. Embracing change, adapting to this new normal and yet, still being very successful when it comes to our achievements, our outlooks and how we've chosen to stay connected.

This week will feel like a push for many of us. We may start the week tried, more achy and our workouts might need more "warm up" time, need to stay in an easier effort. We have one more week to build our fitness before our next rest week. Get in touch with how you're feeling and don't be afraid to back off if you feel like you're already processing a healthy level of stress for your body right now. Although we're following a "program" - remember that not everyone fits into a particular way of doing things. #befree to make your own choices and create a journey that feels good to you. 

Some of our crew is fighting through some niggles and may remain in the #dothelittlethings phase for another week. This is okay. You need to know that others have had ups and downs in their journey this spring and we all need to stay focused on our own individual needs and journey.

Don't get sucked into comparing to others or trying to keep up to anyone around you right now. #BeFree to make good choices for you... continue by watching week 8's video above.

MOTIVATION STATION
"a group of friends that feels like a family is priceless. your intuitions brought you together to lift each other up and protect one another. the time you spend together is truly precious, empowering and rejuvenating. always laughing, learning and facing the ups and downs as one."
LEARN
Steve and Anthony have put together an entertaining and helpful video on how to upload a GPX route from Strava to your watch this week.  Watch it HERE. **Thank you Steve and Anthony for helping with this project* 
MENTOR

WEDNESDAY & SUNDAY WORKOUTS

Transition into Phase II of Covid-19

5/12/2020

 

VIDEO RECAP:

**Please see the private group facebook page for the live video posted on May 14th due to the video above not working**

VIDEO RECAP
- breakdown of what we know about BC's new restart plan and how we are adapting our clinic phase II plan around it.
- talk about how to assess risk and how we can keep our risks low.
- plans for the remainder of the spring clinic. 
- plans for the upcoming summer clinic.

SPRING CLINIC
- We want to monitor what BC's Restart Plan / Phase II looks like in our community and give it some time to unfold before we implement our phase II.
- We have done such a good job of the virtual platform so far and this is going to be our new normal for awhile, so we don't feel the need to rush into things just yet.
- That said, we will be very closely monitoring things and will stay open to making any changes as we go.
- some positive changes to the remainder of the spring clinic that are happening organically with Phase II are a.) if you're comfortable, you can run in small groups of 2-6 people now b.) BC Parks are about to open which will hopefully give you more options and help some of you feel more comfortable on your long runs.

SUMMER CLINIC
- we will add more training videos on strength and mobility.
- we will keep the virtual coaching platform going with videos from coach R
- new online training plans with different focus. a.) those bumping up in groups b.) high volume plan for anyone who still has races scheduled, virtual races, camps or wants to maintain their base into 2021. c.) lower volume plans for those who don't have as much time for training but want to stay connected with the pace community, their goals and be challenged.
- love yoga, breath workshops, happy hour zoom meetings and more creative challenges and ways to stay connected.
- 4-6x small group runs spaced out every 2-3 weeks of the clinic to a low for a natural self isolation period should someone in PACE be sick and not know.
- We will also choose 4-6 locations and rotate the groups between the locations so we are all not showing up at one parking lot every run.
- wednesday runs will remain virtual.
- clear rules and guidelines put in place to ensure the safety and health of everyone while on group runs
- locally designed t-shirt summer style!
​
Thank you to everyone for supporting our spring clinic and helping make this challenging time so much more positive. We don't want anyone to feel any pressure to continue with us this summer, however as a team we are going to work hard to find new creative ways for us to stay connected and grow off the spring platform. We know the summer will look different with travel restrictions and it will be one of our highlights to share the journey with you this summer.
