Week of Sept 22

This is the time of year that I always warn parents and students about.  School is in full swing, running/training is starting to catching up with us, and as the weather change hits more flu-like illnesses start to attack as our immune systems are breaking down.

Parents – please continue to enforce reasonable hours of studying, etc…Athletes take care of yourselves!  Sleep, hydrate, and eat properly to keep your energy levels up.  Half the battle of succeeding at the end of the season is being HEALTHY enough TO SUCCEED. 

Also, keep good shoes on your feet.  The expense now certainly outweighs being injured and frustrated later.
