Sickness!

I'm pretty frustrated at the moment! I finally had the oppurtunity on Wednesday to schedule a time with Mr. Hinds to talk to him about my project, but then I had to go and get sick!! I was supposed to talk to him today during 3rd period to get approval and advice, but I was sick all day today, making me incapable of talking to him. I'm really hoping I will not be sick tomorrow too. I'm really excited to hear his advice, and see what  suggestions he has for me.

Another part of my agenda is to find a coach! Thats a very key and important part of my project. I have many people in mind, including the current coach of the Oakbrook Cross Country team, Mr. Tucker.  After I talk to Mr. Hinds (hopefully tomorrow!) I wanna see if I can talk to Mr Tucker. (maybe at running practice after school)  He may or may not be interested in coaching two running teams in one year. If he isn't interested, there are some lower school teachers who may be interested.

So my plan for the Track season is for us to start training in the Winter, so we can be fully prepared by the time the season starts in the Spring. Probably starting off with short practices once or twice a week, growing into more later.  The practices will vary in distance, but most likely ranging between 1-2 miles, and sprint training. My hopes are for us to run against the majority of the same teams we compete again in Cross Country.  Private schools such as SCA, Day School, St. Josephs, Veritas, and maybe even a few public schools, such as Dorman.
