Pre - Region Recap

Team,

I hope that all of you can take something away from today. Did I start out to fast or to slow? what was I thinking about during the race? was I feeling negative, positive? Have I been eating and drinking correctly? Have I been getting enough sleep?

From this point on, wither you feel great about today, or feel like you can do better... I want each of you to know that I know that if you put the work in, and are disciplined and can believe in your self, you will get faster.

Each of you need to set goals for yourself, and work as hard and smart as you can to achieve them. Today is just the beginning, I look for each of you to achieve excellence this year...

The team results were disapointing, but I know we can improve on this and be one of the most competitive teams in the state.

Girls Team: 4th Place
Boys Team: 3rd Place

All Pre Region Team: (top 10 at Pre Region)
Summer Harper
Victor Johnson

I expect more at Region!!!

We can do this team, lets come together and make it happen.

Hobble Creek - Water Stops

Hello team,

I wanted to post some information for our participation in the Hobble Creek 1/2 Marathon.

On Friday, I would like to meet at my house for the annual "Water Stop Prep". We will meet at 5:00 PM and will be done in plenty of time to get to the Football game.

On Saturday, we are going to Meet at Orem High School (Front Parking Lot) at 5:30 AM. We will Carpool Down to Spanish Fork. I would really love to have some parent volunteers to help out with this event.

The Race starts at 7 AM, and we have the first 4 water stops. I will Split you all up into 4 groups so that you will have a dedicated stop. It is alot of fun, and helps to raise some additional funds for our team and program.

We will discuss this more at practice and class. Please plan on being there to help out with this event. It is a great way for you to volunteer in the community, as well as raise some funds for the team.

you can plan on being done by 9:00 AM...

thanks for your support,

Andy

Day 1 - Cross Country Camp 2009

Today was a great day... for the first time in three years we were able to do the "real" summit run. Think 3 miles of climbing on a dirt road... then back. It was extremely hot.

Finally getting to campus...having room dramas, eating dinner, and we were out on our evening run... Here is the group photo...
