My school was the 2023 small school of the year for AP College Board and while yes, it’s a good thing, we also deal with a culture of more AP classes on a schedule = better. Some kids can handle it. Most struggle more than they and parents admit.

24 ➡️ 25 season opener at El Paso Eastwood Twilight. Every kid that ran both years, improvement or not, are listed. Ave improvement was 63.5s. Boys with smallest improvement did not run distance track. I think my 1 girl with smallest improvement just had a bad race.

Eastwood Stars and Strides Girls varsity and JV champions! Boys finished 4th in the varsity race and 3rd in JV. Great start to the season!

If you can watch Remember the Titans without getting choked up over and over again… I’m not sure we can be friends.

When a kid skips summer training… that’s selfish. Your friends want to be competitive at those first meets regardless of their “importance”. I imagine the best XC teams go all-in TOGETHER. Help your teammates reach their goals. Hold yourself accountable. Be part of something.

I had a new irk unlocked today... teachers that clap loudly after admin shares some new information with the staff at the back to school meeting. And don't get me started on the question askers.

Highly recommended! @CoachDistance has both high school and middle school cross country training that will get your kids ready to compete all season long and ready for track season as well.

I’m naming it Camp Rival. Los Alamos and ABQ Academy teaming up for summer XC camp. From the year 2000, only 1 boys team and 1 girls team not LA or AA has won the blue trophy in NM’s 2nd largest classification. That’s 48 out of 50 seasons that it’s either red or green!

If you’re a private coach and your athletes see progress… that’s like figuring out that water is wet. Your clientele is already motivated and the number of athletes you coach is limited. And yeah, you hopefully are also a knowledgeable coach. All a recipe for success.
What’s a coaching opinion you have that would have people like this?

The more you run, the fewer excuses you find not to run. You just do it. You find time to run. Some days you’re more motivated than others, but you almost forget you have the choice not to. It gets hard wired into your programming. I assume a lot of other runners feel the same.

Thought of the day… it’s pretty difficult to have your best fall cross country season ever if you aren’t willing to have your best summer of training ever.
