13 Weeks Till Spartan
Stapleton, Open Run Changes, Heat waves, Cheese Plant & Recon......
Heat Waves = Open Run Changes
It was crazy hot this last week. In 16 years of coaching CC this felt like the hottest first week of open runs that I can remember. This coming week looks to be just as hot. We are going make some changes to open runs.
We are going to move our Open Run site for this week to a shaded trail.
Shortening Open Runs. Now scheduled from 7pm to 8pm
Ultimate frisbee will be put on hold until the weather cools down.
Check your Remind app for Time, Date, Locaton changes to Open Runs.
MidWest Cheese
June 13, 2022
On Monday, last week, Emily and I got to tour MWC. Its a brand new cheese & whey plant which recieves 8 million pounds of milk a day. This plant has a ridiculous 90 miles of stainless steel piping which milk flows through. When you look at this pipe it hurts the brain trying to understand where it all goes and flows too. MWC produces 40lbs and 640lbs blocks of cheese along with dry whey powders that can be found in a staggering amount of products including sports drinks, bars and whey protein powders.
Reconassance
Truthfully I was doing recon on Monday. MWC is located in St. Johns, Michigan just 15 miles south of East Lansing, which by chance is where my tour groups hotel was at. We stayed at Hyatt Place Lansing East which is 4 miles from “The Spartan Invitational”. Emily and I got some really good Hotel location info, more details will be coming soon.
