At times it's good to take the pressure off of preparing for a race at the end of the week. With a week off from racing, we'll be focusing on the workouts. |
I really like the effort of the women. The times were a little off, but his course did not appear to be a fast one. |
It's one thing for me to try to communicate that they can compete at this level. But they must believe it for themselves. That happened through this meet. |
Kyle earned his first college medal. This was a good reward for all of his hard work over the last three years. |
Matt, Jeff, Kyle and Kevin are the four returning runners from the 2004 squad and their maturity showed. Experience is so vital to a team's success. |
The lay of this course does not lend itself to ideal racing conditions. The guys run the same loop four times and that is mentally difficult. |
The women had an outstanding day in placing second at the McPherson Invitational on a windy day. Six out of seven runners improved their times from last week's meet. Overall, the women ran about a minute faster on the Rolling Acres course compared to a year ago. |
We can't be disappointed (with our finish) when we don't leave anything out there on the course. |
