We had some amazing performances this past weekend at Davis with several qualifying for BYU. Lizzy set new PR's in both the 100 & 200. Hayden set new PR's in the 800 & 1600. Lydia ramped up the drama by kicking 7 places in the last 200m of her mile, setting a season best and qualifying. Conner electrified the crowd throughout his race and finished dominantly in his heat setting a new PR and qualifying. Good times!
I've registerd everyone that qualifies for BYU according to my records.
PLEASE check this list for accuracy I feel terrible when I miss people. If I've overlooked you or there are any events you don't want to compete in let me know by today at practice. Requirements can be fond on the Meet Info link on the calendar and blog.
Practice today will be at 8:00pm again under the lights on the track. Hope to see everyone there. It's awesome!!!
I'm looking forward to some quality training sessions this week. I really hoped to hold a training under the lights this sometime this week, but there are Lacrosse games every night and they won't be cleared out until 9:00. So plan on normal practice times.
We have 2 meets this week. The first is a JV meet on Thursday and we are hosting Bonneville & Viewmont at our track. The second meet is the Wildcat Invitational @ WX on Friday. This meet has minimum requirements. I expect everyone who doesn't qualify for the invitational to compete in the meet on Thursday. Please look at the marks below and sign up here for your events by Tuesday night.
Bountiful Meet Athlete Sign Up
I will need as much help as we had last time hosting. If you want want to compete on Friday, you must help host on Thursday. Talk to me personally if you have a conflict. Sign up for an assignment here soon. Those competing on Thursday, please sing up for an assignment that will be fixable with your events.

We have a crazy week filled with meets. I was just informed there is a JV meet this Thursday @ Box Elder to make up for a cancelation. We are hosting the Jr High tomorrow, Wednesday is Region Relays @ WX, & Friday is the Phoenix Invite. I've reached out to everyone qualifying for the Varsity meets, but need to know who wants to compete on Thursday.
Everyone needs to review this meet sign up sheet. If you are not listed on the Region Relay or Phoenix Invite and want to compete on Thursday @ Box elder please complete this form ASAP.

There are also a number of people with U's and I cannot let you compete until they are resolved.
I am still out of town until tomorrow morning so I will not be around for class or practice today. Tom & Dalton should be around for Jumpers and Distance. Sprinters please check the schedule and do the workout listed.
Thank you all for signing to help at the meet tomorrow. I'll be there by 12 or 1:00 to start setting up. Come as soon as you can after school. Meet starts at 3:00
I hope you are all enjoying Spring Break wherever you may be. If you have not signed up for an assignment for the Jr High Track meet we are hosting on April 11th, please go look for an available slot. Mostly I need more Hurdle/Relay Crew and Finish Line Crew
Here is a link to the the assignments so far
Here is a link to the descriptions for each job. Please review this so you know what will be expected.
I will be returning on April 11th and plan to be at the track around 12:00 to start setting up and organizing. Come when you can, I feel very unsure how this first attempt will play out.
Parents & Athletes,
I forgot we have been asked to host a Junior High meet on April 11th at 3:30. I'm headed out of town for spring break this Thursday the 30th and returning on the 11th at 12:00pm. The day of the meet and I've never done this before in my life. I have some basic information from some other coaches, but I need more than myself to make this happen.
There is a sign up genius with all the assignments I need filled.
I only have 2 volunteers so far. I expect every athlete on the team to take a slot and be there the entire meet. Given my schedule we will only have a few hours before the race unless someone would be willing to be CEO of the meet. Please take time to get signed up for something and I'll do my best to coordinate everything by the time I return.
As of today this meet is scheduled for Wednesday March 29th and Thursday March 30th. There are rumblings that more bad weather is slated for next week and they may run a single day meet on Tuesday March 28th instead. There will be a final decision on Sunday night.
We are limited to 4 athletes per gender per event except for the 1600 which will allow 10.
We are allowed one relay team per gender per event.
If you would like to compete at this meet I need you to sign up here by Sunday night.
Since I don't have official marks to identify the top 4, we can run some time trials if there are too many for one event.
These are all the items I will be covering during the Parent meeting on March 2nd
I'm a facilitator not a motivator - I will provide a
solid program but it's up to you to succeed

Meets
I'd like to have everyone be in charge of registering themselves for all the indoor meets. Since it's not school sanctioned it minimizes the exchange of money. For the most part it's 5.00 per event.
Spring (Outdoor) Track
Indoor is going to be treated as Pre-season conditioning. Nothing hyper focused. Just fun! If you haven't already, please complete the sign up steps in the link above.
If you think there is any chance you will do Outdoor, please complete the Register My Athlete as soon as possible.
Coaches so far:
Brittany - Head Female Coach - All throwing
Dalton - Assistant Coach - Distance 800/1600/3200
Me - Jumping, Sprint, & Hurdles Coach
If anyone knows someone that would be willing to coach in any way please let me know.
My training will be complete, but very self driven. If you follow the prescribed training program you will enjoy this sport and be successful. I use the Training Calendar as my bible. All workouts, circuits, meets, & parties will be posted there. Become familiar with it and let me know if anything is confusing.
The workouts for Track include lots of training other than just running. Strength Training, Drills, & Circuits will either have a link or an explanation on the Drills & Circuits tab.
Official practices through the end of February will be A days only. Unless we get told otherwise I plan to make the weightroom our meeting place.
There will be some type of workout every day on the schedule. Please organize with others and meet up on the off days.
Look for a shirt order form with our contest winners designs and a racing singlet sometime the end of this week.
It's going to be a fun season. I'm excited about the group we had there today.
