Summary

Folks with no race on the horizon, like Cortney, will appreciate the guidance Dimity and Sarah give on planning workouts for the week. Rebecca and anyone else coming off a long layoff from running will benefit from Dimity’s advice and Sarah’s insight about finding speed again. And anyone who lives in hilly environs, like Honi, will be intrigued by the answer to her question as to whether hills count as strength work. Dimity opens up about why she is taking a break from her GPS before the duo turns to answering questions at about 9:38. Crafty, entrepreneurial gals: Here’s Google Form Dimity referred to.
