This week with TTR: Taking it easy!
Hi friends,
It's funny how the mood in the group can swing.
After months of big, coordinated events, all guides felt the need for a break. Either to tackle a larger challenge on their own, or to spend quality time with family.
So this week we will only have a recovery run on Saturday, a quick trip half-way between a casual stroll and a beginners run, through some lovely corners of the Tama hills at their sakura peak.
Have a great weekend and hear you soon for more TTR adventures!
Keep following our newsletter and our Facebook page for more announcements and updates.
