This week was to begin our outdoor riding season, but as is sometimes the case in April, the weather is not cooperating. So we have decided to stay indoor for one additional week and transition to outdoor evening rides next week. This means there will be one more opportunity to attend a Tuesday night spin workout and one more opportunity to participate in a Thursday night Gators Zwift Team Time Trial race! ALSO, we are planning to try a Saturday morning coached outdoor ride this week... It'll be a leisurely paced "get reacclimated with riding outside" out and back SRT ride starting and ending at our usual spot, the Reynolds Dog Park. Watch for the April-June weekly workout to be posted sometime this week. APRIL's FULL Challenge: In case you missed the post, based on the success of our March Madness Challenge, we are starting a new challenge, the "April's Full Challenge" that will run from Monday, April 1 through Tuesday, April 30. This challenge includes 10/10/10 and 15/15 options: - 10/10/10 Challenge: Complete at least 10 swimming AND 10 cycling AND 10 running workouts during April. - 15/15 Challenge: Complete at least 15 cycling and 15 running workouts during April. Workouts must be be at least 15 minutes in duration and can be in any order and on any dates. A Facebook Messenger group has been established for the group to communicate and report results, which will be tracked by Don Mack <https://www.facebook.com/groups/216774858507294/user/100000975103622/?__cft__[0]=AZVmGR_3AHDMEOo_8izL39OzA66cOQ6G5nzLO09n6rGU5Osx8C1g4J7aYTq_ik4jzQtPSsF-6cVY2BQEvBMwVBYzwO_WWstes0tUXa-AdLUUgTpRzkDHZCv8s9RjnfZ5UZHHDuzqwhW6U-LtimqtZOXHy8wQMV37BRZdeJESnQoRcV55gpkqoRMD3S_FHaQyMds&__tn__=-]K-R>. If you did not receive a notification about the group it means you are not currently included; if you'd like to be added, just post an "I'm in for the April's Full Challenge" comment below. This serves as your weekly list of our club workouts and, for the 26 weeks of fall and winter, your opportunity to post any completed Gator Fitness Challenge weekly challenges including the SBR Challenge (i.e. complete at least 45 minutes of swimming AND cycling/spinning AND running) and the SCF Challenge (at least 45 minutes total of combined strength, core, and/or flexibility workouts). If you completed the SBR Challenge, the SCF Challenge, or both last week (March 25-31), please post a comment indicating which challenges you completed. Your results will be added to our tracking sheet. Workouts Attendance Poll: To assist with workout planning, please check all workouts that you plan to attend.
