Blast From the Past: The Power of Being Part of a Team

A blast from the past, trimmed for today. In this episode from our archive, Coach Patrick breaks down the three reasons training with a team makes you a better athlete, and makes you better for the people around you:

Momentum. People have walked the path before you, people are walking it with you, and someone a step behind could use your help.

The experience factor. You borrow what your teammates have already figured out about sleep, gear, races and race-day execution, so you toe the line like it's your fourth time.

Fun. Teammates turn even the hardest parts of training into something you look forward to.
