COLD WEATHER TRAINING CONSIDERATIONS

Hey everyone, it's back! Yes, whether you like it or not, the fall/winter weather is back for a few months and we can't do a thing to stop it! After the summer heat, this seasonal change may be a welcome one for some of you, but it will do one thing for sure…. change how we train!
