NMM
Training in less than optimal conditions builds resiliency and prepares you for sub-optimal situations in the future. Sure this workout would have been more palatable in the Spring, but we did what had to be done in the conditions that we had, and we’re all better because of it. I’m sure there’s a life lesson in there.

Thanks for the opportunity this morning. I hope this is the hardest thing you do all day.

-IJ
