Week 16: Progression & Speed

Throw back to 2019 - Livin' on a Prayer.....

This is a shout back to the 2019 girls team: Bon Jovi - Living on a Prayer. That was literally the theme song for the season and it felt like we were living on a prayer trying to keep everyone healthy and getting duel sport athletes schedules to work out. Amelia Cameron, Kalor Greve, Adeline Fitzwater, Kaidie Carstensen, Linsey Eddie, Gracie Hubbs, and Kai Van Dyke invented “The Journey” on their way to the schools first team state meet qualification. The goal for that season was as simple as get everyone to the District Meet! There are some similar themes developing this season for the girls.

Front Row: Linsy Eddy, Kaidie Carstensen, Kai Van Dyke, Gracie Hubbs, Amelia Cameron, Adeline Fitzwater, Kalor Greve. Back Row: Coach Van Winkle (Cow Suit)

We are half way there! The season is half way done so it’s a good week to look back at our preseason A, B goals and see how we are stacking up and consider “The Journey” going forward.

Also with no races this week I want to get everyone involved with the newsletter so be prepared to write 3-4 paragraphs about your trip to The Spartan Invitational, I think we can accomplish this by Friday.

We have our first progression run of the season on Tuesday, and a flat out speed session on Friday at the track. These are the big workouts for the week. Mileage is going to stay the same or go up a little from last week.

Week 16: Sept. 19 - Sept. 25
