2026 PICKENS MEN

HURICANE WEST RAVAGED ROPER PARK

> It was late, a school day, wind blew, we were rusty and still..... we managed to dominate like West teams of old.

> Most of you will shock yourselves by how fast you run at Coach Wood

​​

WE ARE LEARNING PACING

> Many were a little more aggressive starting out, risking safety to learn. 

> Some ran even splits and even negative splits.

> Getting the 1st mile right really makes a huge difference.  Early in races it is about EXECUTION of a strategy.  Late is is about GUTS.

​

HOW DID THE TEAM PERFORM AS A WHOLE?

> Team and individual victories felt great.

> We can do MUCH better at Coach Wood.   I believe.  Do you??? because that is the only thing that matters.

> Keep executing!  Pre and post fuel workouts.  Eat every few hours.  Steal every hour of sleep you can.  Hydrate!  Lock in this week.
