Athletes,
Overall, the Mustang Roundup meet at Trabuco Hills was a success! We had PRs, big gains, and super competition! TRACK IS BACK!!!!
As we discussed, each race you participate in is like an investment into your running experience account. Racing well requires that you come to the start line physically prepared to clash with your competition, but it also demands that you are mentally prepared as well. This is the aspect that most commonly keeps runners from reaching their full potential. When the going gets rough, remember to focus on the workouts and hard work you have completed, the strength you have developed, and the fact that your competition is hurting too! As we move on to our next races, keep this in mind and use this knowledge and experience to dig deep and compete on the last lap.
The Huntington Beach meet on Thursday is a practice meet and we will not be tapering for it. We have much bigger and more important goals later in the season, so we will be training through this meet. We will discuss what races each of you will be doing on Tuesday.
Keep running!

El Toro Recap & Training Plan
Athletes,
Coach Eisele and I were happy with the "rust buster" races this weekend at the El Toro meet. The first race back is always a shock to the system, but you all ran well! Some equaled or set new pr's, while others were at or near the front competing. TRACK IS BACK!
Please make sure that you are eating well, hydrating, and getting enough rest as we get closer and closer to the regular season. You guys are working hard, and these things are important to your success. Also, we'd like you to reflect on the goals you have set for yourselves this season. Racing is difficult, and you need to work on preparing yourself for the physical and mental challenges you'll be facing during the season as you strife to achieve your goals.
Keep running,

Pre-Season Training Assessment & El Toro All-Comers
Athletes,
Your recent training has indicated that you guys are getting both physically and mentally strong! We am really impressed with your positive attitudes toward the hard work and the teamwork you have been exhibiting during practice. Keep up the great work!
On Saturday the 11th, we'll be running the E Toro All-Comers meet as a fitness test. Most will be running the 1600 (the first event of the day after the toddler dash) and then getting a little workout after your race. Amy S. and Rylee will be running the 800 a little later in the morning. Please bring a towel or blanket to sit on and a lunch. If you can't stay for the 800 (11:00ish), we can possibly set up a carpool. Please remember to bring $5 cash for the entry fee.
I also wanted to give you a reminder about safety on the road. Coach Eisele and I do our best to plan training runs with as little "on road" time as possible, but the rain has made it difficult, so please keep your eyes on the road!
Keep running,
