Yearly Improvements

I was looking at some data from last year at this time, we had a couple of athletes who have made some significant improvements this past year.

In 2009, our February race was on the 14th, a full two weeks later in the training calendar than what we did this year. That is two more weeks of speed training, as well as aerobic miles. That makes the improvements outlined below even more impressive, and a testament to the training and work ethic of these athletes. Congrats!

Wow, that's some awesome improvement! Woo-hoo! I think everyone has been training super hard this year, and if you did not improve as much as you had hoped, don't worry about it. Trust in your training, work hard every day at practice, and the results will fall right down to where you want them too.
