My appearance in the picture above is entirely unintentional, but the finishes of Brooke (winner of the JV race, pictured) who smiled from the 2 Mile mark to the finish, and Myah, who showed us another gear over the last quarter mile in which she closed a 15 second gap to take 2nd place in a blaze of glory (check it out here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CGV4P0klaLR/ ). . . MADE MY DAY!!
I know we are going to get some incredible results from our Boys today! Ladies, its back to work at 2:30 for a recovery run of 12-15% of your weekly followed by strides, core and stretch. Then, its out to your post on the course where you get to cheer on the guys today!
Boys - we'll see you at 3:00. Race day protocols re: hydration, diet, etc. You know the drill. Physically, you're ready. Prepare mentally . . .
