External Motivation...

Coach Becerra and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a Happy Holiday Season. The entire team has done a tremendous job this season. Coach Becerra and I are extremely proud of the work that has been done. Keep focused over the winter break, we are right in the middle of our season! I want to leave you with two thoughts....

1. An obstacle is what you see when you take your mind off of your goal...keep running!!!

2. Coach Becerra and I know that running Winter Track can prove difficult at times due to the weather, but just think....

At least you're not this guy...
