Week of January 19th
Welcome back! I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday season! We had lots of family in town and stayed busy but were also able to find some time to just relax! Below is practice information for this week and announcements.
Announcements
WINTER TRACK HAS BEGUN! If this is your first week, please make sure you sign up at the link below.
You can sign up for winter track by following the link on the Legend Track website.
Speed Day- Tuesday!
Track season means our training is going to look a little bit different. We’ll be incorporating more speed and speed development as it’s necessary for performance on the track. Please bring racing flats, Vaperflys and Spikes if you have them to Tuesday’s practice!
Upcoming Racing Opportunities!
There are a couple awesome racing opportunities coming up in Colorado and we encourage all of our athletes to get some racing in this winter! Coach Hines and Acosta are planning to be at both Colorado Classic Pre-Season Meets hosted by Heritage HS in Littleton. We’ve got a couple of weeks before these opportunities but wanted to put it on everyone’s radar.
Info below!
Colorado Classic Pre-Season Meets
This is an outdoor meet but on an abbreviated schedule. Every year there is great competition for these meets from the South Metro area.
You can sign up for the first one on 2/7 HERE
The second iteration will be on 2/21 and run a similar schedule.
Pre-Season Goal Setting
This pre-season, Coach Acosta and Coach Hines will be offering short 15–20 minute individual goal-setting meetings for committed athletes motivated to push their limits during Track this spring.
These meetings are designed to be focused, intentional, and athlete-driven. They are not casual check-ins. The expectation is that athletes come prepared with their goals clearly thought through before we meet. Our time together will be used to sharpen, challenge, and align those goals with training.
If you’re interested in scheduling a meeting, you’ll first need to complete the Goal-Setting Prep Form linked below. This prep work is a required part of the process and is where the majority of the goal-setting happens.
Goal-Setting Prep Form:
Once the form is completed, we’ll follow up to schedule your meeting.
Why this format?
Short, focused meetings work best when athletes take ownership of their goals. The preparation matters more than the conversation itself. This process is meant to help you clarify what you want, why it matters, and how you plan to get there.
If this format isn’t the right fit for you right now, that’s completely okay. There will be other opportunities to talk training and development throughout the season.
