Take a look at the image above and what do you see? Possibilities of the endless kind? Maybe a gang of runners? Maybe some Bad Panthers ready to get all over some summer training? Maybe new uniforms with a multiplicity of combinations? Maybe one shared reality, one moment that we all have accepted in a multiverse of realities? What if we packed all of our Bad Panther CC runners back into the Band Hut, add in thousands of miles, shake it up and spring the doors open for another photo, what would you get?
BANG! POW!! Lightning Panthers. Flying at you, past you, fast, too fast. Ready to light up the CC courses this fall.
What if we packed all of our Lightning Panthers back into the Band Hut again, and re-run it? And again, re-run it and again, re-run it, re-run it, re-run it! Until out of the Band Hut Springs Led Zeppelin…….
And there we are “standing on a hill in the mountain of dreams”, wondering, where is this going?
Week 1 of training is the seasons superposition moment. There is an infinite set of possibilities that could spring out of the Band Hut in 2024. Run the possibilities through your mind and what do you see? Then run it again, and again and again….. What do you come up with? Do you see another District Title for the girls team? Do you see a boys team qualifying for a regional meet for the first time in school history? Do you see new uniforms…….. Yes!! Do you see a return trip to Michigan State and a weekend at Hamlin Lake? Do you see the passing of the Captains Log from 2023 to 2024? Do you see ultimate frisbee? Do you see freezy pops at the park? Do you see post run work? Do you see yourself getting fit? Getting fitter than ever? Run it, and re-run it and re-run it in your mind, “Telling myself it’s not as hard, hard, hard as it seems”. RUN IT! The possibilities are ours to create. It’s time.
Week 1 Training Goals:
Run It…. Get out and get some miles this week. Very Simple.
Double check your final surge tomorrow, I will be making some adjustments to the training for 1st year athletes & Senior athletes.
If you don’t have final surge yet download the app and Tuesday we will get you on the training platform at our first open run of the summer.
