Windy Weekend

I woke up this morning so sore from trying to keep my balance in the wind yesterday. Am I getting old, or was the wind really that bad? Either way, I give everyone who raced yesterday major props for doing as well as they did. I throw times out the window on those types of days, and only look at things likle how you warmed up, whether you used your brain during the race, and how mentlaly tough you were. And in all of those categories, I thought we did fantastic.

We are going to have a tough week of practice this week, to get ready for Nike/Littleton, but to also gt ready for League & State Champs, which are coming up sooner than you think. The coaches will be asking everyone, since this weekend is Prom weekend, when you would have to leave the meet to take care of Prom activities. The schedule is posted below, to help you get a sense of how the day will unfold. However, as coaches, we are not required to alter the team goals in order to get an athlete into any particular race. We are going into this weekend's meet to win it, and we are going to try and set up our runners to achieve that goal. So, tomorrow, we will talk to everyone at practice to try and get a sense of their schedule. Then all of the coaches will get together and try and figure out the best line-ups possible.

So, I hope you ate a lot of ham today, watched some golf, and got some R & R in. This week is going to be tough, but it will be worth it!
