We're back to build week #1, and with that the return of our 5.45am Tuesday run sessions. If you didn't remember that we were changing from August, or get the memo at swimming this week (that'll teach you to #neverskipaMonday), know that going forward we are back to the early start! And heads up - it's Run TTs this week so we're at Albert Park Lake from 6pm.

Build Week also means you should see the intensity rise a little in the programs and the return of the Nongs Ride on the weekend.  This is always the time where the big C rears its head….there is nothing on just being CON…SIS…TENT!  Get up, turn up and show up to train (#Mindset). 

But...What a miserable time we have had the last week with polar ice temperatures and rain, rain, more rain and some snow! A great welcome home for our Thanyapura peeps!! Kudos to those who stuck it out on the windtrainer on Saturday, getting their recovery week rides in and to the small group of athletes who braved the weather for #SundayRunday to be rewarded with blue skies, sunshine and of course good vibes!

Big shoutout to all those who headed north for the City 2 Surf in Sydney, well done all on some great runs. She loves to fly under the radar, but special congrats to Jen Schuster who, fresh off the back of Thailand camp, ran a 10 min PB!!!!   It was also the first duathlon of the winter season, congrats to all who raced!

This week we have a great article about ON Running athlete Rachel Cliff, some advice on how laps in the pool might just make your laps on land even faster, 
as well as reflections on our Thanyapura training camp in Thailand and if that gives you #FOMO, you can sign up to the next best camp on our calendar - Queenscliff!  Actually, you better sign up soon, coz there's not many beds left and once they're gone...that's it!
