Think of the possibilities

If you read the blog regularly, you've previously seen the phrase in today's byline . . . think of the possibilities.  Last time we ran at P-North, our top men's runner placed first and the top woman set a new course record.  Can we improve on that today?   Improve? No.  But we don't need to improve on a meet held two years ago in order for today to be a successful trip.  The P-North course is 2.65 Miles.  That alone should boost your confidence.  Every one of you has run a several 5Ks this year.  Some of those in the grueling heat.  Today, the weather forecast for the shorter course is sunny and 58 degrees.  Ideal.  I am making the challenge for YOU to challenge yourself today.  Do not be the guy (or the girl) who, following today's race, says "I could have done better."  Give it your best.  Anything less flies in  the face of everything our sport represents.  From Day 1 we have set and reinforced a "goal oriented" philosophy.  What is your goal for today?  Lower you pace time?  Finish ahead of a particular teammate or opponent?  Strong finish?  Whatever your goal, get out there and accomplish it!

See you at 2:15.  Wear your uniforms on the bus, we may make a quick stop on the front field for team pictures with Sue Moss.
