Highlights:
·      The following runners all completed their first 5k race! Sair, Dawayad, Youhana, Weston, Sam, Jayden, Wisdom, Jackson, Dakota, Keyanna, Sara.  Nice. Work! Most high schoolers will never be willing to embrace the struggle that you just went through!
·      The following runners all ran PR (Personal Record) times: Frank, Hayden, Levi (by about 2 minutes!!!!!).
·      Dakota Vincent was told he only had to run 2 miles… and ran all 3 anyways.  #toughness
·      Sair broke the 17 minute mark in his first cross-country race!  Dawayad showed how hard he worked over the summer in Massachusetts and I think we have Frank convinced he’s a runner and not a basketball player!
·      Weston absolutely crushed his first 5k race! He ran faster in his first race than Fern Creek / Berea College runner Kyle Young did in his high school debut.  Kyle eventually went on to run 17:13 as a senior… No pressure, just sayin’
·      Sara Barnett passed several other ladies over the second half of the race and showed mental toughness in working her way up.
·      Shout out to all of the parents/families that made it out to support you!  Wow!  I’m not sure we’ve ever had that many parents and family members hanging around the tent.  Great to see so many of you.

Focus Areas for Next Week:
·      A tough, tough, tough week of training ahead.  Varsity has about two weeks until their next race, JV about a week and a half.  This week is very important for us to get better and faster.  Eat well, sleep well, take care of your body so that you can improve from 2:30-4:30 each day (3:30 – 5:00 on Tuesday).
·      All athletes need to make sure they are communicating with Coach Redies regarding practices and meet availability.  Several athletes are starting to slip in this regard, and consequences will be implemented if the trend continues.
·      I want everyone to identify two things that you could have done better on Saturday.  I will be asking you about these on Monday.  Enjoy the rest of your day and get that school work knocked out!
