Gut wrenching and inspirational. This world of Ultra running is the epitome of all that is good in humans.
I may have cried watching him hit the track as the seconds ticked away.

William Barkin crossed the 2024 Western States 100 finish line just over the 30-hour cutoff. His effort to become the first legally blind person to finish this event is so valiant.🙏❤️#WS100

@coachmenley 9 square is so fun and all the students love it! I learned A LOT of variations at MOSHAPE last November to add spins on it!

[GanderRunner @GrossbauerJake]

Studying Experimental Design Process in @PLTWorg Medical Detectives; discussed importance of clear, logical, easy to follow instructions.

Did back to back drawing to practice giving these directions.

Quite the array of drawings and lots of laughs.

New semester means new adjustments.
Finally tried a warmup I saw @MOSHAPE1 , Finger Jousting!!

Students were hesitant at first but out of breath and laughing 5 minutes later!

P.s. I'm 8-0

2023 Ozark Trail 100
Without a WHY, enduring these distances are near impossible.

My WHY this time was my support system. Boy did they show up

Truly shows that if you go out, put the work in, treat people right, even without ask or thought you in turn will reap those rewards.

[GanderRunner @GrossbauerJake]

This week is our mix unit of new games: Pickleball, table tennis and @9squareintheair

A big win as coaches were smiling seeing all the Ss smile and sweat in the games!

9 square is the big win, we need another one!!!

"Death before DNF"
Term used in ultra running
Hours/ week, for months spent training; away from family and obligations.
Unless possible long term injury or life-threatening issues we continue, one foot in front of the other until that finish line.
