Many of our athletes are going to use social media to try & improve their performance. Instead of telling them to "stay off" or even "be careful," I just try to share as much of the QUALITY info as possible in hopes they can learn to distinguish the good from the nonsense.

Vibes have been so much better since we've actually been outside. Imagine that.

Had a Freshman tell me that she finally looked at the Tfrrs today. I could also see that the innocence was sucked out of her body and that she would never be the same. They grow up so fast!

With this next big snowstorm incoming. I'm reminded that instead of complaining about what we can't do, focus on the things that you can do. Control what you can control.

Remember there is no secret to training or secret methods. If folks are not willing to share & be vulnerable in their programming don't be offended. It simply tells you that the person is guarded & has an ego & is very protective of being vulnerable.

Just entered an athlete who hasn't ran in 3 years due to injury, into her first collegiate meet. Getting goosebumps. She can walk across the finish line for all I care. Just to race again after 3 years of grinding and setbacks is a win in its own right.

Time to figure out Spring Semester practice schedules. Oh & to add another twist, we have no outdoor lights this year due to the stadium renovation. Might have to invest in those flashlight caps

COACHES: Remember that your deload week isn't just a chance to allow your athletes to recover, but an opportunity for you to recover as well.

Great day of testing! 2 good races from the sprints & a time trial for the non-regional distance runners. Highlight of the day was an athlete coming to me, saying they felt nervous. GOOD, if we can work on getting through that feeling at practice, it'll be nothing come meet day.

Removed almost all of our "sprint drills" from the warmup this year. Why? (Well as most Coaches know) a There's always a handful of athletes that eventually become lazy & just go through the motions which defeats the purpose. It also makes it very tiring to consistently correct.

Really excited about how the first day of Track practice went yesterday. The goal was to get back to having <10 athletes per practice group & although it meant having 3-4 different sessions. I'm finally feeling like I can give the necessary attention to each athlete again
