On twitter mostly as a coach, fan, and student of track, CC, and human performance. Opinions are my own.

Athletes: Sunday is a great night to get into better sleep habits.

• Can you get off your phone 30-60 min earlier than normal?
• Can you get to bed 15-20 min earlier than normal?

If you can ingrain these habits in the next two weeks, you'll race faster in Oct and Nov.

Kailani finishes with a 9th place finish in the vault and earned all state honors!

[Coach Rolando🙂 @Rolando_Speed]

I will say that huge props go out to ShaZam racing and the young man who ran our sectional by himself. 2 cameras. Moved one of them 3
TIMES! And you know much “delay” it caused? Maybe 10 minutes each time. EVERY timing company should be able to do what he did tonight.
He was MVP
