TNHSXC 10/30 update - STATEBOUND!

Good morning TNHSXC family (I started this email 6 hours ago).  Well, I'm still recovering from that epic day of racing Saturday.  Every single one of our kids laid it on the line when we needed it most.  The girls ran fantastic races, despite the cool temps and tough course - four of the six ran season best times and two PR'd!  That is the way to cap off a season of growth.  The guys faced a huge and deep Region field, yet they ran with grit and pulled in our second Region Runner-up trophy!  We've been Region Runner-up twice in six years, and now will have sent distance runners to 11 consecutive State Championships counting track.  Renegade Running!  

Kudos to all of our kids.  I couldn't be more proud.  

Saturday 11/4, KHSAA State XC Championships - Kentucky Horse Park 
I've included the entire schedule just for reference but highlighted the guys' race in green.  We will leave school at 9:00 for anyone that wants to caravan.  It is slow parking and a long walk into the venue, so if you are not following you need to be on time.   Everyone needs to be on site no later than 10:30.  

All ten boys entered as the Region team will be entered automatically in State.  Spectators are $10.

10/25 update - REGION WEEK!

Hello TNHSXC family.  The nervous energy is bubbling over around here - it's REGION WEEK!!!  I'm super excited for our kids, and very appreciative of the the hard work that's gotten them to this point. 

Tomorrow, regular practice then Region Team dinner - we will run our normal practice then the kids will come up to my art room for a pasta dinner/meeting/goodie give away.  We should be wrapped up by 6:45. 

Friday, shakeout - one easy loop of the XC course, four strides, stretch and put our legs up.  Kids will be done by 4:45.  

Saturday, Region 2 Championships - Green County HS, Greensburg KY.  
At this point, I believe everyone has been to the Region course.  It's just over an hour away and the schedule below is on CENTRAL TIME. 

1:00pm all athletes arrive at Green County
1:30pm girls begin warm up 
1:45pm Coaches Meeting 
2:15pm Class AA Girls 
2:15 pm boys begin warm up behind start of girls race 
3:00pm Class AA Boys

The following athletes are registered as our 2017 Region Teams -

Tori Cecil
Kristyn Broell

 
Boys - 
 
Marcus Bowling
Lane Hoyes
Jake Humphrey
Clay Dones
Andrew Newton
Ethan Vance

It's imperative that our kids are on time, have double and triple checked their duffels and have their uniforms.  I will go over cold weather gear and expectations with them in the coming days, but BE PREPARED!  It will likely be a rough weather day.  

I know that we have a couple of inhalers on the team.  I'm faxing Physicians to Children for Andrew Newton.  For Jake and Kristyn, I need you'all to handle getting the form to the right doctors to get them signed.  

There is lots of info attached.  Pay attention to the parking areas, and note there is a $5 per car parking fee.  All of the registration paperwork is taken care of, just attached everything for you to see if you were interested.  

Let's make sure our kids are well fed and well rested going into the weekend.

TNHSXC - 10/16 update

Good morning TNHSXC family.  I hope everyone enjoyed a weekend away from competition and that the kids had a great day of training on Saturday.  My family and I got to spend some time together travelling to Ohio for the Columbus Marathon.  While I wasn't thrilled with my time, I'm proud of how I placed because the conditions were really tough, and everybody was dying out there.  I mention this because it's thinking about these kids, what I ask of them every day, and how much they mean to me that keeps me going.  We are entering the most competitive part of our season, and I can be really hard on my athletes.  I believe in them, and I know they can rise to do great things.

Extra kudos to Amie Isabel, Emma and Eli's mom/elementary assistant coach/program builder.  She set her PR in Ironman Louisville yesterday.  Outstanding!

Below is the link to results from last week's Bolt.  It was a crazy week with a rain out and a reschedule, pulling together a meet while Soccer Districts were happening, and kids having to respond to a tough night of racing on a Thursday.  Well, they did just that and our boys won - on a tie breaker!
