Rain. Storms. More Rain. By: Coach Stephanie

Rain.  Storms.  More Rain.

It’s raining.  Again.  And then it storms.  Again.  This is life in the Pittsburgh region for the past couple of weeks.  What does this mean for an active individual?  Wet, hot, disruptive weather, safety concerns, route alternatives, nutritional considerations, clothing changes, and the list goes on and  on…

The list isn’t the only thing that goes on and on… we keep going on!  We keep making adjustments and reorganizing and changing.  Instead of dodgeball, we play sponge dodgeball.  Instead of running on the trails, we take to the pavement.  Instead of baseball, we organize an indoor scavenger hunt.  Instead of hill repeats (who likes those?) we do burpee challenges.

Is change something that you’re comfortable with?  Are you skilled at adapting to the current situation?  When it rains, does it throw you off your game or are you able to adjust and move forward?

Life changes.  It brings rain and storms and more rain.  The important part is that we can learn to adjust, get comfortable in the change, and move forward with even more vigor and passion for life!

So, bring on the rain, the storms, and the change.  We’re ready!!!
