It was great to get our first meet in after a very good summer of running and team building. We appreciate everyone's patience with switching around the schedule to avoid lightning and all that. Hopefully we're able to stick a little close to our planned schedule this week.
If you haven't done this stuff, please take a look at (and do) the following things:- The 2022 schedule has had a couple changes! Hurricane was moved to 9/21 (we will still have some of our JV attend that race - no location announced yet). We have added a race with Cedar on 9/28 which everyone will be racing.

Purpose of the Week's Workouts: This week's workouts. We see a decent increase in minutes, so it will continue to be important to take care of the body and mind. The number one thing you can do to help yourself is GET MORE SLEEP. Make it a goal to continue getting 15 more minutes of sleep every few nights until you are giving yourself a solid 8 hours +. We'll have our first Monday morning long run this week and a good workout Wednesday, so work on getting to bed sooner. Then we'll back off a bit to help us recover for a strong race on Saturday up at SUU.
ALWAYS WEAR WHITE OR BRIGHT TO AM PRACTICES
This Week's Schedule:
Monday: AM - 5:45a long run at PVHS (Black, Silver required; Maroon optional) / Afternoon - regular practice at 3:00p PVHS (everyone), we will meet in the Lecture Hall.
Info about Mondays: Monday morning is often a long run. Black and Silver level athletes have committed to be there; Maroons have the option of doing the long run in the morning or having the minutes built into the week, so the am run is optional for them. Everyone should be to afternoon practice. We will start with a team meeting in the lecture hall and then practice. Maroons who ran in the morning will have SAMS and drills.

Race Report:
Cedar All-Comers - PVXC had a great first race of the season up at a rainy Cedar course. The girls started us off with a first place finish led by Brook (4th), Emmalee (5th), Adri (6th), Kate (11th), Katie (12th), and Elle (15th). A few other strong races came from Sydney, Olivia, and Ma'a. The boys saw a ton of improvement from last year. Trey broke away in the last half of the race and won by over 20 seconds. He was followed by Bridger (18th), Talmage (20th), Porter (23rd), and Kyler (25th). Other guys who had a strong race were Gianno, AJ, Liam and the rest of the Freshman crew. News report.

PVXC Thought of the Week:
"Your body language doesn't just affect your mindset and performance, but also your teammates' mindset and performance. This is why you need to try your best to maintain positive body language, not just to help your own mindset, but also to improve your entire team's performance."

This is something that all of us could use a reminder of. The way we act and the words we say not only influence us, but also everyone we're around. Remember Positive Vibes Only!
