Jennifer Pearce rang in 2024 by running the Resolute Runner 5K in Arvada, Colorado on New Year’s Day!

Jennifer was excited to ring in the new year with this race. After working on some specific running skills over the last couple of months (including hill strength, cadence, and quality form), Jennifer really sought to put all of the pieces together in this race and see what she could do.

I’m delighted to tell you that Jennifer’s first Post-Workout Note in Final Surge was “Ok, totally rocked this.” She pushed herself while focusing on all of the elements we’ve been practicing in her training. As a result of that focus and work, she ended up running her fastest 5K time in quite a while and hitting her secret goal of averaging less than 11:00 per mile.

Congratulations, Jennifer!
