AT&T APCA Dragons Land Workout 1 of 2

Hello Team,

We will have our 1 of 2 land workout class for the team this Saturday before our practice.

Class will be led by Mike Sanchez who has been in the health and fitness industry for over 20 years.  He will lead short and sweet session to make you sweat. Please sign up on this EVITE so he know how many people are coming.

I also sent out separate EVITE for our second to last paddling practice so please respond all the EVITES by Wednesday 7/13/2016.

Please contact me if you have any questions and look for latest info in our blog http://apcadragons.blogspot.com, Facebook: APCA Dragons and on Twitter: APCA_Dragons.

Thank you.

APCA Dragons Practice 6 of 7

Hello Team,

It’s getting more and more exciting since we only have two more practices left before the big race.

We will be working on starts transitioning into mock race sets.  Remember, 4 (power) – 16 (up) – 10 (power).

We will start assigning people to each team so it’s very important to respond by Wednesday. It is our goal to assign you a seat for the mock races.  Everyone should be coming to remaining practice unless there is important reason.

There will also be boot camp this Saturday so I’ll be sending out separate EVITE for that event.

Niccole & Connie will be in charge this Saturday. Lisa will be coaching in my spot.
