A Shout Out to An Old Teammate
Check this video out. It is of a teammate of mine and fellow running Red Fox Adam Vess. Many of you know Adam since he ran for Xavier High School and has been a counselor at Green Mountain Running Camp. Vess discusses some of the transitions to college running and the ups and downs he has faced. This is a featured video on flotrack and it will be sure to bring some attention to the Marist program. Enjoy!

State LL Class Meet Times/Feedback
4x800 Meter Relay 8th 10:05.62 Season best State Open Qualifier
Jenna 2:31.6 Absolutely stellar performance. You should be extremely proud of this, I am.
Amanda 2:40.3 You're still stuck on this time. It's ok though. I struggled with the same thing for a long time and sometimes still do. Believe me when I say it's all in your head. You have the ability to breakthrough and you will.
Sarah 2:30.5 Same as Amanda, you've been stuck on this time and again, believe me when I say it's in your head. You have the ability and you will prevail. I think whatever illness/bug you have/had set you back a little too but that's ok. You still ran a great split. I'm very proud of you for gutsying it out. Well done.
Julie 2:22.7 Another great race for you, nicely done.
55 Meter Dash State Open Qualifier
Ashia Prelims 7.52 Finals 7.46 Great performances in a deep field, nicely done! I am looking forward to Saturday.
300m
Ally-47.26 Solid time. I was hoping for you to break 47 but you've been dealing with illnesses and I think that took a lot out of you. Great end to a great season, nicely done!
Carla- 48.20 Same as Ally. Great season, you really impressed me.
600m
Sarah 1:45.89 I know you were disappointed in this but you ran a nice 800 split and you were sick. These things happen. Forget about it and concentrate on next week.
Taylor 1:50.39 Great race for you, nicely done!
1000m 2nd State Open Qualifier
Julie 2:57.61 I think you would agree this was the race of your life. You looked great and would have set the State Record if it wasn't for the Glastonbury girl. I'm extremely proud of you and you definitely deserved this race, congratulations! We will discuss race tactics this week. The girl from Glastonbury was nervous and she has a right to be.
1600m
Kathleen- 5:31.39 You are much faster than this so I don't really know what happened, one of those things I guess.
3200m
Amanda-12:32.97 Solid race but I know this isn't what you wanted. You're an extremely tough and smart racer, I think you just doubt yourself sometimes. We'll work on this. Nice job though!
Kathleen-11:48.41 Pr by 9 seconds, not too shabby. Ran negative splits. Good race for you!
4x200m 1:53.40

Casey 1:02.0 Fantastic race, you looked extremely impressive.

We were unfortunately dq'ed in this race. I was on the other side of the track still dealing with the Pole Vault situation. Coach Bennett took splits but I misplaced the card he wrote them on, I know we ran 4:46 which is faster than our previous mark so nice job to all you ladies. I would like to point out Meghan who I know ran 2:38 which was very impressive.
HJ 2nd State Open Qualifier
Kylee 5-02.00 Absolutely amazing. I got to watch some of your jumps and you looked great. Very impressive, nicely done!
PV I would like to apologize to the both of you for the situation that occurred. It should have never happened and I should have made sure we had the forms so I take full responsibility for what happened. You were able to put everything aside and still compete which I was very proud of, nice job!

Practice Schedule
First off, Happy Valentines Day to all of you! I already posted who the State Qualifiers are. As of right now, we will practice Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. We will not have formal practice tomorrow. There is snow in the forecast for Tuesday but we will just have to wait and see about that. If things need to get changed around, I will be sure to let everyone know. Tomorrow you should do easy running, 2-5 miles followed by 6x75 meter accelerators or strides. We will do a workout either Tuesday or Wednesday depending on the weather and then go easy Thursday and Friday. The meet on Saturday is at 12pm. Right now, plan for practice at 10:30AM and we will meet in the commons. If that changes I will let you all know. Any questions/concerns/situations feel free to call me or e-mail me. Stay tuned for times and feedback from yesterday.
Nike Indoor National Meet
The following individuals have met the qualifying standards for the Nike Indoor National Meet
Rachel
Ashia
Sarah
Julie
Kathleen (Limited to top 30 freshman times).
You can find all the information here. From my understanding, all athletes would have to pay entry fees and associated costs out of pocket. The cost is $35 per event. The meet is at the historic Reggie Lewis Center in Boston, so you would probably not need to get a hotel and the trip could be made in a day. Regular registration is open until February 28th. You need to register online and the link is provided on the website. I just wanted to make these individuals aware and we'll be discussing this more this week.
