@DickTelford Well done coach!

Cam Myers' decisive NY Millrose Games Wanamaker mile win in 3:47.58 today, to follow his 2 previous indoor meet wins, signals a promising 2026 season. But a long one, to be very carefully planned. His 3:32 1500m along the way of that NY mile wasn't too bad either....

@DickTelford @_zacharygates Well done team

Well done, Cam Myers...2nd in the prestigious Oslo Diamond League mile and another excellent performance. Might not have been his best race tactically, but he certainly showed us how his finishing speed is coming along.

This season we’re trying to provide a bit of insight into how we juggle a multi-disciplinary squad of athletes - some at college/ some at work by providing the benefits and challenges of working with such a wide range of athletes.

@athsstats Haven’t been able to get a pacer for an A-Race all year in Vic which may make things tough.

$2000 for an Olympic Qualifier! Are Vic Milers a bit put out at the global exposure the Sydney Milers meet got recently?! MEET 5 Thursday 14 March 2024, 6:00pm Venue: Doncaster Events: 800m & 1500m #uptheante #goodforthesport

@Gareth_Sandford Exclusive

Huge thank you to the 79 (and counting) early adopters who who requested and just received exclusive early access to New intro course on how to maximize speed & endurance. By commenting ‘exclusive’ below you can join them. Offer expires in 24 hours.

@DesProctor @WorldAthletics @wabudapest23 The fellas did great, coach. Was nice to restock the shelves a bit after some quality racing. Both were within their limits.

When an athlete is 16,000k away from you sometimes all you have is the data from the workout. Session 1600m threshold + 5x300 +4x200 + 1k threshold. 3 more 800m races for Riley's first European tour. @WorldAthletics @wabudapest23 is the goal. thanks @RisingTrackClub

@DylHicks $30 a month here. Covers track Classic travel and petrol etc.

Interesting discussion with a coaching colleague today, regarding paying the track coach minimal per week (or zero) for 4-6 sessions, yet happy to pay S&C coach $75/session. What do private track coaches charge athletes? (if you comment, and feel comfortable, state amount$)

@DesProctor @AthsAust Fantastic season coach, congrats

To win a championship it takes a team. Riley's first national athletics medal is gold a month before he turns 27. Pretty certain that doesn't happen often. More to come. @AthsAust #nextstepnextraceeurope

@athsstats @NSWAthletics Caldwell 800m?

@RisingTrackClub @NSWAthletics Looks like Caldwell not running But Hull will be pushed by Nozomi Tanaka🇯🇵 Japanese national record holder for 1000, 1500 & 3000m, with a best of 8:40.84

Sydney Track Classic on this Saturday includes 3000m Oz🇦🇺 titles Women's event should be a cracker with Jess Hull & Abbey Caldwell Hull in such good form World XC Champs & holding off Caldwell in 1500m Relevant record times is case they are needed: @AthsAust #ThisIsAthletics

@athsstats @NSWAthletics

Having difficulty finding the fields for the 3000m races (not with Classic starting list) ... @NSWAthletics have these been released yet? thanks

@LT_Moorhouse Gee whiz would be nice to have something like this in Vic! Looks schmick

In all seriousness, the deck is in immaculate nick for the Australian World Cross Country Selection Trials.

Good to be on the carpet at Stromlo testing the important things with @tommythorpe21! Livestream kicks off at 7am tomorrow via @AthsAust YouTube. Plenty of storylines, which athletes/races are you looking forward to watching the most?

@Nittaz Things we love. How good is a new athlete with a quality handover!

A new athlete arrives, passed on by another coach, 16, fits in instantly, enjoys it… doesn’t overcook it! Listens, wants to learn and enjoys the group instantly … and a bonus at the end when he rolls out a 26s 200 with ease! Creates excitement amongst the crew!

@Nittaz @AthsAust Was very impressive to watch!

Great too see a well earned breakthrough by an athlete who is just so consistent with everything he does and a privilege to coach! Cael Mulholland runs a 18s 3k PB to finish 3rd in the decastella 3,000m behind class acts Myers & Naokes… 👏 next up World XC trials 👌 @AthsAust

@Nittaz @LT_Moorhouse @seanwhipp Add in Janetski and Diamond too - not a bad cohort at all!!

Has there been a better Decastella 3,000m field put together than this years edition @LT_Moorhouse @seanwhipp ?

@AthsAust @CommGamesAUS National Abbey Caldwell day has commenced

HOW GOOD IS THAT?! Abbey Caldwell wins bronze in the women's 1500m! 4:04.79 @CommGamesAUS #ThisIsAthletics #BoldInGold

@shandymanslife @Garmin Yep, this was an out and back…

@seanwhipp That is some proper running

Adam Spencer (Wisconsin/VIC) closes in 56.26 to make the NCAA 1500m final. Collegiate record holder Eliud Kipsang (Alabama, 3:33.74) did not advance.

@Nittaz I think you’re spot on Nitta, I managed to keep it going the days of just having Fry and Lewis but as they got better, event demands shifted and I got older I shifted to holding a watch and joining on mid week or Sunday runs

Over the last few years, I’ve found there are a few pro and cons as to being a coach that can still train with their athletes on a regular basis… over the last summer season especially some learnings have been very clear with my endurance runners…

@willllewis1 Lunny and I both copped a free upgrade #RexNeverFails

Surely there’s a law about this

Bloke in front has just put his seat back on a flight from Sydney to Melbourne.
