I didn't go to work because a cat fell on my head and then a dog with shoes tried to do me justice.

Also hi mom. I know you are going to see this as you go through your weekly routine of looking through my social media accounts.

Every day I thank God I have the parents that I do. They not only taught me that it is ok to call out injustice when you see it, but they continue to lead by calling out micro aggressions and having the difficult conversations in a small town.

All the track kids know what I would be yelling...”Toe Up!”

“Bottleneck”, as it relates to football: 💥 Too much emphasis on endurance, toughness, and countless tired reps at slow speeds. 💥 Not enough emphasis on speed, power, recovery, rest, and sleep.

Next week on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday at 6 p.m. we can have some track fun!!!! See you there 😊🏃🏃🏻‍♀️ Jump, Hurdle, Sprint or Vault! Your choice😁😁

It won't be fancy, there won't be crowds and you may be asked to leave after you compete, but we will compete. We will have a link on pttiming.com soon! All open events with no relays. *A schedule or order of events will not be posted until we have an idea on numbers.
