You have given a ton of yourself and earned this moment of glory- reaching state with a rookie team. For what it's worth, I would have had no idea about how often to have an XC team race full-on hard either. Glad you have a mentor there!<br /><br />About the Tutu pacing. Darn! At least you looked cute puking..(lame attempt at humor there.) It will be fun to see you race some half marathons!Rainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14118022681297462844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222151866215168851.post-34965068020352601292012-11-13T11:52:47.408-06:002012-11-13T11:52:47.408-06:00Wow, Congrats on an amazing season!

You nail that category. May many more coaches follow in your footsteps. <br /><br />And who else could run a 3:30 marathon while projectile vomiting in a tutu? Gotta be some kind of a record! But yes, troubleshoot the nutrition:) <br /><br />Onward and looking forward to how you do this next cycle. Josh Cox is not only cute, but a wise dude:)<br /><br />Adrienne Langelier, MAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13557342659549394877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222151866215168851.post-90347491090948807312012-11-13T06:41:39.160-06:002012-11-13T06:41:39.160-06:00Congrats to you and your runners on a great season...Congrats to you and your runners on a great season! I'd love to coach XC! Maybe someday. ;)<br /><br />Hmmm,vomit and running don't seem like the best combo. Well, vomit is pretty much absolutely awful whenever. Hope you're all recovered!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06399320835082431959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222151866215168851.post-51010891276445004372012-11-13T00:09:53.717-06:002012-11-13T00:09:53.717-06:00What did you call this post?

Now that bit about "you" getting back to training sounded more like, lets run a marathon for fun and use that as a base to start training again...<br /><br />I Like it!coach dionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14464619260070895703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222151866215168851.post-41321476826424353292012-11-12T19:53:39.125-06:002012-11-12T19:53:39.125-06:00Congratulations Rebecca!!

And I'm thrilled that you found a coaching friend/mentor, you really needed that, the way it was so Boys Club as you described, really glad you found someone to bond with.<br /><br />So glad you found your own fire again as well. As for the puking, I wonder if that was an electrolyte thing: hot, humid days mean more sweat which means more of a need for electrolytes. Just a thought. Been reading about this stuff, my next post is about potassium. <br /><br />Lastly, you look adorable in the photo. :)Girl In Motionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12845071620369547052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5222151866215168851.post-27004247453987934332012-11-12T13:20:54.877-06:002012-11-12T13:20:54.877-06:00Congrats on an awesome season!

Your excitment is clearly visible and I'm positive your impact is one of the reasons your children did so well :)<br /><br />Projectile vomiting is not good. Nutrition woes suck.

You guys worked so hard this season. You absolutely deserved to be there. So glad the kids got to experience it.<br /><br />Way to go on pacing! I can't believe you projectile vomited and kept a 3:35 pace. I think vomiting is my breaking point. Well, I haven't done it yet but I think that's my white flag of surrender. I hate puking!<br /><br />And yes, I would love to plan a meet up race!!

You and your athletes have much to be proud of and I am sure they will be a group you always remember (and that they will always remember you as well). I am excited to see you get back to training and racing too. There are big things ahead for you I know it! Hugs!SupermomE13https://www.blogger.com/profile/11305105357197956694noreply@blogger.com
