School's out!

Enjoy it, ladies!

I'm excited about the coming season. I can't wait to start working with all of you, to see the improvements we're going to make. Cross-country is such a sweet sport, I never get enough of it.

There was a text sent to all of you with cell phones. I did so to test the group setting on my iPhone. I received only one response, so I hope it went to the rest of you.

One of the questions I've been getting is "will we practice more than the first day?". Of course! The summer schedule will be Mon-Fri, every week except moratorium (the first week of July). I cannot have any contact with any of you that week by IHSAA rules, but other than that, I hope to see a great deal of the group all summer. My family will also take a short vacation, but I will have plans laid out so the running can continue.

You might be wondering about your own vacation with your family. Of course you should go. Just take some shoes with you and try to run wherever you are. Some of my favorite running memories are from exotic places on vacations. My runs in the olive groves of Florence last summer sure are keepers!

I'd also like to remind you all Anytime Fitness has a summer special for students - $99 for the summer, which gives you access to weights and all of their stairsteppers, bikes, and treadmills. It's a good deal. I'm a member, and I love the place.

Start thinking about what you hope to accomplish this year, both personally and as a team. We have a good number of girls signed up to run, and if we can keep all of you healthy, the sky is the limit!
