It's not easy running track on such short preparation, but I am proud of my athletes for going after it. They dealt with the short training season, they worked hard to get into shape and they are racing their way into shape; slowly, but surely. Our team moved to 3-0 in league on all levels and really used a balanced attack to do well in our meets. While we could have more areas filled, I am happy with what we were able to fill in the amount of time we had. Even if they miss their PRs, just the fact that they are here, trying to make progress is what counts. Although we had to deal with the frustrations of the starter, we still managed to make the most out of the day. There were a number of good performance, but none better than the simple effort these athletes put in to being here and giving it their all. It's not easy, but there out there and that's what matters. We're not all going to be where we were when we left off, but just take your time, ease your way in and just be proud that you put yourself back out there again. With enough perseverance, it won't be long, before we find our way back to where we were, if not surpassing it.
