A few years ago, I tracked improvement rates of my college runners and compared it to a whole slew of factors to see if anything correlated.
The most important factor? Did they show up to practice.
Those who missed the fewest days tended to improve the most.

Aiden with the casual 32-second PR in the 1600 and 84-second PR in the 3200 yesterday.
Whether you think you can or you can't, you're right.

Every time there's a football kid on the fence about track, I pull up the athletic.net profile of all their favorite players.
Before @OhioStateFB's Jeremiah Smith was racking up 187 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the Rose Bowl, he was winning state championships in the hurdles in Florida 👀
Smith won the 2023 FHSAA 1A titles in the 110m hurdles and 400m hurdles as a junior at Chaminade-Madonna.

This is so accurate for 30-something runners. I've literally been calling the Turkey Trot my Super Bowl, and I almost threw up and couldn't breathe after breaking 5 and trying to beat my top guy in the mile a few weeks ago.
The Ultimate Guide to Dominating Your Local Turkey Trot 🦃
"It’s the goddamn Turkey Trot. An American tradition like no other. Your chance to dispatch with foes from the road racing circuit both domestic and foreign, old and new, real and imaginary. This is your Super Bowl.
But it won’t come easy: you need to be prepared for the WAR to come. Here are the adversaries you’ll face tomorrow morning, and how you pull off the victory against every one of them." ⤵️

In August, I watched the Olympics, and a lot of the 30-year-olds were covered like miraculous old guys giving it their last shot.
Now I'm watching election coverage, and I'm not sure I count as one of these younger voters anymore.

It was a great day to be a Captain. Every kid who ran today ran a PR.
Congrats to senior Aiden Baugh on the eighth fastest time in school history (16:36). Fell a little short of the state meet, but made remarkable strides this season. @WK_Athletics @WSDATHLETICS
Fun day getting the band back together to host the LVC meet. Lots of PRs and an all league finish for Aiden. Go Captains. @WK_Athletics @WSDATHLETICS
I guess that's one thing that can happen if you let your students make their names on Kahoot.

Update. This guy ran a 16:59 at Hanson's for 11th best time in school history on Saturday. Then a 17:17 to win a double dual on a tough Hess course today.
This dude was running 18:45 last year. Insane improvement and why running is the best. @WK_Athletics @WSDATHLETICS
Congrats to senior Aiden Baugh on a 9th-place finish with of 5K PR of 17:18 at the Holly Invitational today. Go Captains! @WK_Athletics @WSDATHLETICS
