The birds are chirping, spring is in the air, and the virtual Boston Marathon just opened for registration. With fingers crossed and simultaneously knocking on wood, hope is building for real, live, in-person fall races to happen. If that's true, then training for those fall races starts soon! In Austin, we will be kicking off our fall training on May 8.

What does that mean? It means you need to be primed and ready to begin training very soon. As a former coach of mine used to say, it's time to get fit enough to really train. In this episode, I give you 5 steps to prime your body for the work that will come so that you can hit the ground running in week 1 of your training block. It's time to get ready for the real training to begin again. Will you be ready?!?
