Hydration

With temperatures starting to warm up it's important to discuss hydration

Drinking water is so important for good health. When you were a kid in school, you learned that each molecule of water is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.

    OHS 3 sets of 2 at 145# Extremely happy with that, especially in Chuck's and no wrist wraps.

    Distances at the end of each interval:
    825
    1646
