I recently reconnected via Facebook with Dana, a friend of mine from high school. I was on the dance team, she was the lead colorguard girl. I remember talking with her about endurance.
I have the VO2 of a 3 year old. It’s pathetic. Back then, it was tough for me to get through a 2:30 dance routine without feeling spent.
Her advice: “Think copper, Mari.”
I’m working towards running my first official 5k with @chanthana, @krzimmer, @leyla_a – among others. And you know what?
I’m still thinking copper.
