Let's Get it Started!
So, I’ve been in a holding pattern over the last couple of weeks. My body has gotten used to training at the level I’m at, and my brain has settled back into a comfort zone of mediocrity. As I was cleaning out my files yesterday, I came across my HMSA “Health Pass” booklet that I [...]
