DISTANCE NEWSLETTER #8

Outstanding can not describe how well everyone did on Saturday. I along with Coach Irvine were surprise as to how well everyone did. We had runners PR by almost a minute and others get season best. The fact that we had a workout the day before and ran in trainers should show you how fast everyone is getting.
If you are keeping track of your miles (which I hope you are) top girls are at 38-40 miles a week and top guys are at 45 a week. As we go on, mileage per week will increase. This is why it is even more important for everyone to get enough sleep, NUTRITION, ICING, heel/toe walk and most importantly keeping your grades up to par.
As we look forward to this week we have a meet this Tuesday at Zamparini and another Saturday at Mira Costa H.S.

DISTANCE NEWSLETTER #7

Once again what a great week of practice. Congratulations to the athletes that competed on Saturday at Paramount High School. I was really impress with the improvements that I saw on the track.  I can not stress enough how important it is for you to take care of your body.  Ice your knees, shins, ankles, etc.. Even if you do not have anything bothering you ICE! Why wait until you do? Please continue to ice at least twice a week preferably everyday.  I really like the effort I am seeing during practice. Especially the postive attitude towards each other. You have to remember that running is 60% mental. When you give up during practice or cut workouts because of a slight pain you are just telling your body it is okay to do that on race days. Sometimes all you can do is run through it. We as a team are trying to build our pain tolerance.
