What's one thing you can do this coming week to become a better runner? Key point: it may not be something new. • Continue to go to bed at a reasonable time • Continue to stay focused in the last 30 percent of race pace workouts • Continue to do all post-run work Let's go!

52 days until Saturday, October 31. What is in your control in the next 52 days? What isn't? A high school runner can make a jump in fitness in 52 days. Keep your easy days easy so your hard days can be hard (races are hard days). Sleep to support your training. Let's go!

“It’s very hard in the beginning to understand that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants you to quit.” –George Sheehan

The main goal I have for my athletes every year is to improve. Be better than you were last cross season. Then step it up over the winter. Be better during the track season. Be better over the summer. Improve over the year and improve from year to year. The speed that you run is irrelevant. Just improve.

To run your best XC race you'll have to endure discomfort. You'll have to be comfortable being uncomfortable. So when your coach asks you to do a workout or a long run or post-run strength and mobility that's hard, remember that you're preparing to run PRs, even in the summer.

Someone is always training. Even when you’re sleeping. Make sure you train today. Maybe while THEY are sleeping….
