@TroyMooney Warm weather is a wonderful thing.

@TrackCoachTG Seems like a much longer season in Texas

Year 22 as a track and field coach starts today! Can't wait to see what this season will bring.

I wrote this around this time last year, on track and field and what it's meant to me. simplifaster.com/articles/turni…

@TroyMooney This year state finals is May 31.

@TrackCoachTG Michigan season ends when? Texas is January-May

Hey, I know that guy.

It is important to remember that kids are not smaller adults and should not be trained as such. If an athlete is going home to play Legos or recently grew out of their shoes, their training does not need to resemble that of a collegiate or professional player.

@itsgabbyt Listening…

To speak on it or not to speak on it…😭🤦🏽‍♀️

Just finished this book by my friend Dave Emeott @eksports_org and it did not disappoint. Recommended reading for every coach, teacher, or leader who works with young people. Great job!

Just found a set of these in storage. Looking for someone who knows what these are. 1) is it just an unnecessarily complicated harness design, or does it have some unique function I’m not seeing? 2) if it does have some unique function, what is it and how do I use it?

How did I get on TikTok

First: love this, love to see it, love the athletes, love the coach for having them do this. BUT! Hurdle coach here. PLEASE have them go the other direction over the hurdles!

The sounds of the season! 1-stepping our way in to 2026!

@Hybridathlete Bench 300. TBDL 450. Just friggin' run.

Tell me about your running and/or lifting goals for 2026👇

I'm with the majority‼️ Let's say the following... Acceleration = 0-30m Max Velocity = 30-80m Speed Endurance = 80-150m ➡️Max V allows you quality acceleration within each Max V rep, and you can sneak endurance within short recovery max V reps! ➡️Acceleration Only Approach: misses the all important max V reps... ➡️Speed Endurance Only Approach: doesn't allow for enough focused accel/max V work as the onset of fatigue/endurance is a main theme.

If America were a proper country, we’d have a Midwest rail network as robust as this:

@hunterco Yeah great point -- I forgot about that. Their enrollment puts them in D2 but they're like, nah, we would rather run against the big dogs.

@TrackCoachTG And they do it opting UP a division.

Quick shout out to Oak Park High School. Their girls track and field team has built arguably the most dominant dynasty in the country. They have been state champs or runners-up every single year since 2014. Great job by Brandon Jiles and the rest of the coaches over there!

@EACoachDavis Yep. An absolute monster of a program.

@TrackCoachTG Had never heard of them. Their team is LEGIT and they do it with a relatively small school. It's one thing to run those times with 2000 girls at your school but they have ~450 girls and are running top 10 US times live.michianatiming.com/meets/54128/te…
