Practice participation
The number of people coming out to practice has been getting very small lately. I know that some
 people are away but I also know that their are people that are avoiding practice. Avoiding practice
has many problems that do not help your development. 1. You are not getting fitter and therefore not 
progressing towards mastery, progression and improvement are some of the most powerful motivators 2. You are  
not developing social connections with the training group and your coach, social connections are the 
next most powerful motivators. With out these motivators you will start to question why you are 
doing this and you will suffer from a lack of purpose. How to protect your self from this is to get your self 
to practice. Your coaches are committed to your development but we can have little impact if you are not there. 

Time Trial
On August 25th we will be hosting the next regional time trial. This means that we will need to 
be organizing and providing most of the volunteers. Below are the details. This is a fun time trial,
 it is the second time that we have done this time trial.
