Sat Aug 17th is another coaching event to train more coaches to expand the program. Aaron and Trent joined us. THey had 15 boys in the race and program. THey did classroom learning and then went out to the track and did workouts, including a unity lap where they were silent and stayed together. If they didn’t stay together they had to do it again. They worked on pacing themselves. The classroom activities included activities where they scooped up baking soda when they heard emotion words, then combined them with vinigar to emphasize not letting their emotions get to the best of them. The race was a lot of fun with them. They started in the back of the pack on purpose and moved through the people and . Mr. Schamburg at the monthly board of education meeting asked the boys to present to the board about their experiance. They read the lines of the Let me Run credo and gave examples of what each line of the creedo meant.
