9/14/17- 4th meet down, 4 more to go

Congratulations to a great meet!!  Great job to all of our awesome runners.  There have been some pretty fantastic improvements in the season thus far. 

Earlier in the season runners had an opportunity to set a goal.  Whether it be to walk only one time during a race or improve their time by 30 sec, each goal is individual and valuable to that runner.  There are so many ways we can improve ourselves in our daily lives, but running helps us build our stamina emotionally and physically.  I'm very proud of your runners and their determination to do better.  Ask your runner about the goal they set and what their plan is to accomplish it. 

Praise them when they work hard, encourage them when it gets hard, and support them when they fail hard.  Not every race is an improvement. Not every race is a success, but the important lesson for us all to learn is to keep going and finish the best we can.  We run when we feel good and we run when we feel bad.  We just keep going and do the best we can at that time.  Thanks for all of your amazing support.
