October 15th-21st: Regionals and Fall Break

10/14/2012

Congratulations to everyone on an outstanding League performance! The goal was to win all 6 races at Leagues and that goal was accomplished Thursday night. When looking from the outside it was probably very surprising to see so much green up front in each race. For the coaches, we knew we had a great chance to accomplish the goal. Not because we are exceptionally blessed with more talent or skill than anyone else. It was because after the goal was set for Leagues back in June the process to achieve it was nearly perfect. It's easy to set a goal and then not work towards it just kind of hopping it will be accomplished. It's a completely different thing to set a goal and then work towards it with all of your teammates every single day until that goal becomes a reality.  

I'm very proud of the time, commitment, work, and sacrifice that was put in by our athletes over the summer and during the season. Although not everyone gets the opportunity to run at the Regional and State meets in the next 2 weeks, everyone on the team did play a part in pushing these athletes along the way. There is still one more goal to try and accomplish in the next 2 weeks.  I hope to see a lot of Vista Nation athletes and parents out cheering for our kids that are still competing and trying to accomplish those goals for the state meet.
