XAVIER INDOOR TRACK  2008 2009 

Here is the schedule for the Next two weeks including the Thanksgiving break.  Please make sure that you are on time for practices.  You must run on your own the days that we do not have a team practice.  I am trusting you to do what is necessary in order to ensure that we have continued success.  If you take to many days off we will not be able to accomplish the goal that we set forth at the beginning of the season. As with all breaks, your performance over this break with have an impact upon your schedule over Christmas Break.
THE FORMULA FOR SUCCESS  IS SIMPLE: RUN EVERY DAY ACCORDING TO THE SCHEDULE!!
 THOSE THAT DO WILL SEE GREAT IMPROVEMENTS IN JANUARY!!

Some important training tips: 
1- Don’t pat yourself on the back because you did “some” or most of the workouts.  A job half finished is a job unfinished.
2- Arrange your social life around your training, not the other way around.
3- If you have a busy day planned, wake up early in order to run.  Don’t sleep your break away.
4- Bad weather is no excuse not to run.  If the weather was bad and we were in school, we’d still have practice..
5- Traveling is no excuse not to run.  All you need to bring are your running shoes!
6- Team practices are planned with the assumption that you are running on your own.
7- If you train like you want to be the best, there’s a pretty decent chance you will be.

Find a way to run... not an excuse not to!
