Coach Jeremy's Notes to the Team
Hey Parents and Athletes!
We are gearing up for an amazing finish to this season. I still can’t believe we only have 3 weeks left!
So let’s get down to business.
First, another great day of racing for the team at Palona Vista . I’m so proud of how you are all battling and really taking to hear the idea that YOU are the only one that can choose to push yourself to the max! It doesn’t matter where you finish in the race, it’s a matter of you looking yourself in the mirror and saying: YOU KICKED BUTT TODAY!
This time of season is always bitter sweet as we are running speed and fast to give you the best shot at an amazing finish, while at the same time I’m thinking “how are we already to this point”. I guess the bottom line is, let’s just enjoy it, every workout, every warm up with friends, every hard interval, and the 3 remaining races of the season.
For this week we will be running long again tonight. Followed by some tempo tomorrow night. I put in the workout to run based on how tired you are. But don’t let that slow you down. Push for at least the last half if you need to start off a little easier. Tempo and Fast Tempo runs give you the strength the go farther faster. Thursday we’ll be running a combo of fast hill repeats and then fast flat repeats. I love this workout because it really gets your body wondering what it going on!
Reminders as we get to the end of the season:
- Watch out for snotty/runny nose friends and siblings. You don’t want to get sick now!
- Don’t drink after others, ever!
- Stay away from doing things that can break and arm or get you hurt.
- Eat healthy to keep that Ferrari engine purring the way it should.
- Keep pushing hard and keep smiling!
Ok, that’s it for now.
I’m still out of town but will be back to practice Tuesday, so thank you Coaches for leading and thank you athletes for working hard and being awesome!
Thank you,
Coach Jeremy
