Parents and
Athletes,
Team Extraordinaire,
I hope Corriganville
lived up to its bill of
goods for everyone. I
enjoyed watching you
fight for positions,
fighting the dust, and
just racing your guts
out. Of course there
were plenty of
incredible kicks at the
end of the races which
always inspire me. You
all have done such
amazing things so far,
but we're not finished
yet. Stay with me.....
Sorry to miss practice
tonight, work sometimes
has to take priority.
Thanks coach Elaine for
taking over, not that
she doesn't know what
she's doing. I truly
appreciate it. This week
we keep the pressure on
with the bye week.
Tuesday night we will
work hard with hills and
tempo running. Thursday
night we are going to
lay out the home
cross-country course at
Central Park giving you
a sneak peak at the last
race of the season.
Welcome to the team late
arrivals, a couple
David's and who's that
Kobe kid? Gang, we have
5 weeks to the last race
of the regular season,
so just a couple
reminders
1.Stay healthy, take
your vitamins, get good
sleep, eat well, don't
drink after other kids,
wash your hands... and
whatever else your mom
tells you to do to stay
healthy.
2.Keep your head in it.
There are still some
tough workouts ahead and
you have to keep your
focus on your goals.
Some of you want to go
to nationals, others
just pass a couple more
people. Whatever it is,
focus young
grasshoppers...
Alright, that's it for
this week. Thanks again
parents for your
continued support of
your kids. They are
great!
Coach Jeremy
