BARRY'S CORNER - LIVING IN ELKMONT

Cross country summer workouts began today, 7:30 am runs at the trail the rest of the summer. Week of camp at David Crockett and getting ready for the new season. Moving up to 4A again this year. Rebuilding and reevaluating. Always gets me excited. Feel better running myself than I have in about 10 years. We work out with our kids. Always have since the programs started. Great motivation for me to stay in shape and I can shut them up when they complain lol. I’m doing it too! Love to watch the kids succeed. So many lessons are learned on each run if we just “listen.” It’s a tough sport. Team sport but the whole run relies on how YOU perform. Same as life. We’re all in it together but you are only as good as you strive to be. No place for mediocre attempts in practice or races. May not be as fast but the effort better be just as hard from each runner. Improvement is what we want to see. That can only be achieved through discipline and practice. We are what we do. We will become what we believe we can do. We will succeed when we know we have done all we can do. Come join us if you like. Positivity prevails!! We need a lot more of that in our lives! Have a good one!
