I find that fear in a race is more detrimental than lack of training… I tell my athletes to “Get their money’s worth”. You’re going to be tired at the end of the race, you’re going to feel exhausted either way—Might as well push yourself.
Rule of thumb: The more dogmatic someone is about an idea, the more you should question just about everything they say. There are very few things that are black and white in the health and performance world (i.e. Don't smoke). Much is nuanced and individual.
Toured a recruit today and we crossed paths with our Career Services Director—he sat down with the recruit on a whim for 20 minutes to talk to him about internships and career opportunities. Love that small school vibe, because it takes a village.
Six of the biggest regrets athletes have later in life: 1. Not giving their best effort. 2. Not taking enough risks. 3. Not putting their team first. 4. Not enjoying the moment. 5. Not prioritizing their physical and mental health. 6. Not spending enough time with family.
“I hope that either all of us or none of us are judged by the actions of our weakest moments, but rather by the strength we show when—and if—we’re ever given a second chance” —Ted Lasso
Most Division III schools end up being more affordable than D2’s, D1’s, and a lot of NAIA schools. Only 2% of athletes receive any athletic money, that could mean $500 a year to cover textbooks. There’s over 100 more D3’s than D2’s or D1’s…

Listen to World champion Josh Kerr: “I don’t do crazy workouts or crazy mileage. I just don’t miss days. Consistency is my biggest weapon. I’ll break any athlete down with how consistent I’m going to be training wise and just getting the work done.”
Without the footage it’s fiction—Just thought we’d show some clips of a broken record… or two 🤫🫣 #CougsIn4
THEY WERE MADE TO BE BROKEN! Our young buck @curlyhead_miguels3 laced them up one more time for indoor to bring down our 9-year-old Indoor 400m record! Not to be outdone, hurdler @eve.charae reminded us that she is HER by smashing her previous record in the 60 Hurdles!
10 Things ALL Teammates Can Do 1. Be on Time 2. Be Engaged 3. Be Coachable 4. Respect Others 5. Be an Encourager 6. Be an Energy Giver 7. Give your Best Effort 8. Be a Good Role Model 9. Keep a Positive Attitude 10. Support your Teammates Be a Great Teammate!

I heard something this past week that’s really stuck with me… “Competence over Confidence” Not being confident is not a deterrent… You don’t have to be confident, you simply need to execute what you’ve learned competently.
90% of coaching is helping people get out of their own way. Do you want to perform at your best? Get out of your own way. Ego, fear of failure, status anxiety, a focus on the external instead of the internal.
Life is about CHOICES. Here are 8 of them. 1. Attitude is a Choice 2. Character is a Choice 3. Work Ethic is a Choice 4. Leadership is a Choice 5. Consistency is a Choice 6. Commitment is a Choice 7. Daily Habits are a Choice 8. Encouragement is a Choice SUCCESS is a Choice.
Team culture does not form during meetings or scheduled activity. It forms during the in between moments. The cool down conversations, the shared anxiety while awaiting a race, the adventures once the performance is complete and you have got hours to kill in a different city.
Catch me screaming my head off while Ariel dominates the 3K… First meet down and the vibes are up!

Being a Head Coach is HARD Work. I have talked to MANY coaches over my long career. Here are 9 Things Coaches Want Parents to Understand. 1: We CARE about your Child Even if your child doesn’t get much varsity playing time, we care about them. Nothing is ever personal. We…

High school prospects be sure that you have the right counsel before you go chasing the logo of a big time program. To only end up in the transfer portal with only practice film the next season.
4 yrs ago we launched this account w/ a crazy idea... Create high-quality & low-cost (or free) resources for prospective college athletes to help them better understand the D3 level as an option for sport & school Thank you for all your support along the way! -D3Direct ❤️
Im convinced the coaches most important job at a track meet is answering "when do I warm-up?" Literally will dictate the vibe of the day 😂😂
Special thank you @Coach_MAllgood of @CUChicagoTFXC for coming to visit us at practice we greatly appreciate you standing out in rain and lending a hand today! We look forward to seeing you again!
Anytime an athlete has a massive PR; the next few days are recovery & regenerative work. I usually give 2-3 days. 1)Day 1: Do nothing and recharge mentally & be a kid. 2)Day 2: A continuous warm-up with mobility work 3)Day 3: CNS warm-up, walk-in accelerations & MD circuit
Any D3 schools still recruiting 2024's? Drop info for recruits below👇

Embrace the shorter distances to run your best distance faster. 1600m runner: value the 800 and 4x400. If the 800 is your race, how fast can you run 400m and 200m?
