Earn the Rest

💤Recovery Week Mode

We’ve earned this one. If you’ve been ticking off every block of your program, then this week comes at the perfect time.  Body and mind ready for the reset. For anyone still dipping in and out of training, this week might feel the same as any other.  But that’s the problem. You’re meant to earn the rest by showing up in the build weeks. Let’s keep saying it until it sinks in: the cycle doesn’t bend for wishful thinking.  Your job this week is to stick to the plan. Take the lower intensity, use the sessions smartly, and let the gains absorb.

🏖️Good Luck to the Team Heading North

To everyone making the long-weekend trip to the Noosa Multisport Festival, go full throttle! Whether you’re racing, cheering, or just soaking up the atmosphere, it’s a top event and a prime moment to hit reset before the ramp of the season. Enjoy the sunshine, the community buzz, and the finish-line high.

📆Long Weekend & Timetable Change

Heads-up: With the Melbourne Cup public holiday on Tuesday, we’ll be taking the long weekend to support those at Noosa and take a slight pause. That means no coached sessions on Monday 3 Nov or Tuesday 4 Nov. We resume on Wednesday 5 Nov. Saturday morning ride and Sunday morning session will still be on.  Just check the group for any updates.

💧Sweat Test Opportunity

Here’s something gold.  We’ve been asked to share a sweat-testing & personalised hydration plan clinic by physio & endurance specialist Reece Noble. It’s at Kieser South Melbourne on Sat 8 Nov and Sat 13 Dec. You’ll learn:

• how your body actually sweats

• how to fine-tune hydration & fuelling for race day

• how to reduce cramps, gut issues, and race-day surprises

✅ Wrap Up

The weather’s getting kinder, the races are looming, and now it’s not just about showing up...it’s about showing up ready. Enjoy the lighter week, but don’t forget: you’re only getting the benefit if you’ve earned it. So, rest smart, reset strong, and come back ready to build again.
