Week 10 Athletes of the Week -
Tough at Practice - Emma Ward, So. All summer, Emma has displayed the physical and mental toughness that PVXC is built upon. Awesome example Emma!
Team Builder - Yrene Heinze, Sr. Nay Nay has one of the most positive and influential attitudes on the team. Whenever you need to be uplifted, take a minute and talk to her!
Performance - Nathan Beitler, Sr. Nate has had two strong runs to start the season. At the time trial, Nathan set a school record. Then at the Desert Relays, he won the Leg 1 bowling pin. Very strong start to the race season, great job Nathan!
Cedar All-Comers Recap - Cedar All-Comers is a good judge of early season fitness as well as a benchmark for comparison to overall improvement throughout the race season since we race it again toward the end of the regular season. We had a few Youngsters that came up and race, and they all did a great job. In the girls' race, PV got out very strong through the first lap and was looking very good. In the 2nd and 3rd miles, an excellent DH team closed those gaps and moved up a lot to take the victory. Jessica and Alli took 3rd and 4th after leading much of the race. Rylee also placed in the top 10. Sylvia and Gracie rounded out our scoring in 14th and 15th. On the boys' side, Nathan and Julien also placed 3rd and 4th. From there the scoring may have gotten a little mixed up at the finish line, but our finishers of Scottie, Mikey, and Cooper were able to secure a team win in close fashion or very close fashion depending what was the correct placement. The JV boys also saw a lot of great racing. It was a good start to the regular season. We challenge everyone to remember the purpose of early season racing: to learn and grow. And then each of you need to be able to identify some areas of strength to continue and some areas of weakness that you can work on.
Thought of the Week: "If you no longer go for a gap which exists, you are no longer a racing driver." - Ayrton Senna
This is a quote by a famous F1 race car driver. And although we aren't racing cars, the idea is very pertinent to us as runners. After the race, Coach Roberts talked about The Gap and how he has been our biggest competition and enemy. So we found this quote that fits really well with what is going to become our biggest goal. So as we practice this week, as we race, remember if you aren't closing the gap and gaining/catching people, you really aren't racing - you are just out for a run. This week... KILL THE GAP!
