Ask your athletes to be disciplined in their practice this week. I look forward to seeing them this coming Saturday at the Buena High School track. I’ll be in further contact with you this week to make sure that all the kids have selected their events. We have many but are missing several.
I know, for some, it is difficult to practice alone, while others thrive on it. Please let me leave you and your athletes with a few inspiring thoughts:
“The true test of a champion is not how they perform under the spotlight, but how they train in the shadows.” – Anonymous
“What you do when no one else is looking defines your character, and ultimately, your success.” – John Wooden
“Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.” – Tim Notke
