State Wow!!!!
What a season!!! Coaches and I are proud of all the runners this year. First year we had all runners and no walkers. First year we had everyone run faster than 21 minutes for 2 miles. First year with no major (running )injuries ,Mikey, I was excited to see a lot of non varsity runners at state. The competition for next year will be fun to watch. Everyone ran this season with heart and should be proud of what you accomplish.
Several have ask about running in off season. You have speed what you need is endurance to maintain speed. Easy running does it. Start off with a couple of miles and slowly work up to five miles like we did this season. The key is to run slow and easy and then slowly increase your distance 1/4 mile every few weeks. If you want to make varsity next year this is the key to achieving that goal. If you can run 5 miles easy at the beginning of season and not be sore or winded the next day the sky is the limit to how fast you can run. Remember not to exceed five miles, just make it comfortable to run the 5 miles. Running parents get out with this runners now. Soon they will be passing you by. I remember my kids passing me by.
The girls got 7th place
The boys got 4 h place
Joe, Luke, Fran, and Bella placed in the top 25 and medal
Result are posted in the Blog
We are meeting Next Sunday ( a week from tomorrow) at 3:00pm at Orange and Brew.
Please turn in you uniforms. Placed them in a bag with your name on them at the Party. Push ups for those that do not turn them in by the time of Party
We will be recognizing the eight grade runners and few runners that inspire the spirit of Saint Matthew. If you want to bring a gag gift for eight graders that is fine. Please do not embarrass you and the eight grader. See me before the awards
Again thanks for letting be part of your children's life. I truly enjoy running with them. You should be very proud at how hard they all work.
See you at the Party and also next season

Week 7
The
pats on the back are appreciated, but bragging goes to the runners.
They ran fast and hard these last two races. over 40 runners PR on
Thursday and Saturday. Great Job the results of Thursday are posted on Blog. One person left in the 20's and just miss 19 for 2 miles.
The following is excerpt from Coach Brehm from PBL regarding the course on Thursday
Dawson Lake Doozy
I'm not sure if the kids are following what it happening, but we continue to tell them what is going to happen, before it does. Maybe we should open a fortune telling shop in downtown Paxton! The layout for this course is PERFECT for fast times, and we know that. I've GPSed this thing and it is accurate, so I get tired of people telling me it's short. The bottom line, we are getting in shape and conditions today were OPTIMAL. Hence, GREAT times and super effort by most of our team members. I'm extremely happy with what I saw. I know they heard me from behind, as I ran with a group of several team members at the back of the pack to help them out, and BINGO, we did it!
So enough said about this course being short.
Coach Brehm Paxton Coach
The Saturday race had hills and grass and wind. Your time may not be as fast as Thursday but you need to compare to other grassy race you race this season. Now count up the number of PR.
The race is tight for Varsity. These next few weeks are going to be a mental challenge. Your bodies are getting in shape for running. You need to focus on the mental part. NO PAIN NO GAIN, PAIN IS TEMPORARY PRIDE IS FOR EVER. How did you feel after the Dawson Race? How did you fell after the Parkside Race? How do feel after you compare Parside with other grassy races.
Not "CAN I DO IT" BUT "WHEN I DO IT"

What a Day!!!
Thanks for all your help. I was off for home by 11:25 am. Could not do it without your help. Shout out to Saint Thomas More Coach and runners. Great Job
The results are posted on the Blog
15 runners in the top 15. Way to go. Everyone put their heart in. You should be proud, it was a hot day. Heat index over 100. Most of girls and all of the boys running passed the custard cup time. Good Job.
Next Goal is Varsity Jersey. Girls under 13:30 Boys under 12:59. This not a easy goal. This will take several weeks, be patient
Sunday run easy 1-2 mile to relieve soreness. Drink plenty of fluids.
Great start to season. Coaches are proud of you
