Dear Alan,
Athletes, Parents, and
Coaches:
Are you kidding me? I mean
honestly, we've had some
amazing races from Storm
athletes but I have never
seen such an impressive day
of performances. Every
age-group, boys and girls,
you guys all KILLED IT! How
about the fact that I didn't
see one of you quit at the
end of the race. GUTS and
more GUTS is what I saw.
Absolutely amazing! We had
first year runners within
seconds of kids that were
top 5 in the nation last
year. No joke. Plenty of
kids also finished with over
1 minute pr's from the same
course last year. WOW, more
accolades coming this week.
That was such an amazing
day; I literally could call
it a season right now.
But... that's only the
beginning. Enjoy this
race... for a day. Monday
starts prep for another
week.
So let's get to it. This
week we have the lapathon
Monday night, 1 hour of
continuous running at Saugus
High. Bring your forms and
donations. We'll follow
that up with some tough
intervals and hills on
Tuesday and Thursday. We
have to get you guys ready
for your newest challenge.
You newbies got broken in at
O'Melvany, now you get to
experience one of the most
challenging courses out
there. You are going to
love it!
Finally, I want to talk
nutrition. I've received a
lot of questions related to
what to take, how much, and
which products are good?
Well, I've decided to put
together a seminar on this
topic. The truth is
nutrition is a key
ingredient to being a
successful athlete. In the
sport of triathlon, they
refer to nutrition as the
4th discipline. From daily
life, to training, recovery
and racing, it is essential
to have a nutritional plan.
I'll share with you my
experiences, some facts,
science, and the Shaklee
nutritional supplements I
have used for over 14
years. Fortunately, you
don't need to wait too long
for this. I am going to put
it on this coming Friday the
16th from 6:30-7:30pm. It
is open to anyone including
SOME of your kids, midgets
and older only. Please grab
a babysitter for any other
children. Shoot me an email
if you'd like to attend:
Jeremy.stepan@adageit.com.
I will follow up with
location specifics when I
see how much interest there
is.
Thanks again for your
commitment and hard work;
you are making it an amazing
season!
Coach Jeremy
