Good luck to you guys as you continue your running careers at the 4 year schools. It was my honor to get to work with you.

The summer is quickly passing and August has arrived or is about to meet us again. August brings the beginning of school closer and the start of another running season. How many have come and passed? This year will be a different season, new faces from places other than my old high school. I will have Goff and Nix but not one single lady from SCHS.
So learning new people and what makes them different and what makes them a like. What motivates and what shuts down their desire to work. Ever year the season starts with a heat wave and the worry about what to except physically. I wish I could run morning practices, try to beat the heat, but unless I find a different job, the evenings are what I will have to work with. Looks like we will have 7 young women and 6 men on the team, nice numbers to work with as long as we can get them there together at the same time. Chelsea, Janelle, and Toni are back, joining them will be Mallory, Keatyn, Trisha and Elizbeth, this should be my most talented group, but we will see how well they work and how well they work together.Hope they have been putting in the miles this summer, we will soon find out. On the men side; Goff has been hurt all summer, Nix is back, Dustin is back, then we add Josh, who has been putting in the miles, Steven and Brandon. Should be a very talented 6, just like the ladies, the most talent top to bottom that we have had yet. As has been the case with almost all my teams, at this point anyway, I’m not sure about a front runner, only time and I do mean time will tell! First day of practice August 1st, 4:30 at the campus. Meeting in the fitness center. Later!
