    Pulled out the wickets and the Freelap for my neighbors kids during quarantine and literally watched 2 kids learn how to sprint. No cues. Just self regulating against what it felt like when they ran fast times: @pntrack After probably 100 attempts 2.29->1.67 2.28->1.77

    You won’t get as much out of your workouts if you don’t get proper rest afterwards. The running is the easy part. Being disciplined to sleep enough is the hard part!! Stress + Rest = Growth

    Don’t cut freshman boys from the track team if they are committed. You never know who they can become!!
    What a difference 3 years make. This is Kyle Hatler who is the best pole vaulter in NM currently at 14-09. When I see this I want to tell kids not to compare where you’re at to where other kids are. Everybody’s journey is different. Just continue showing up.

    Finally got to check out @muggin_coffee today and it was a treat! Three of my best & friendliest students ever work there. If you find yourself anywhere near Whitehaven and want some coffee (or to talk about Calculus) you need to pop in and support this new black owned business!!
