1-5 Gap :58 (This is a nice gap, fellas)
Jordan 15 (PERFECT SCORE)


Durham City County Champions! Jordan now has 4 individual champions because Nik won the race (for the second year in a row). Jordan placed 3 guys in the top 5 which is remarkable. We averaged 17:11 which is a mere 2 seconds off the fastest average for the top 5 ever! Jordan now has 7 team titles. The JV guys swept the front 5 which has never happened before.

It was interesting to see how you guys responded to a race that meant something and may have had some pressures. It is great some of you got out so quickly, but you must be in better control or your faculties and not go out at an insane pace. I love the assertive mentality and encourage you to approach all the races like that; however, you must be in control of your emotions and don’t let them ruin your race. The second half of the race will go better if you don’t go too fast too early.

These are some of the habits I believe are displayed by great runners (and achievers):

• training at a high level (being proactive and preparing for a competitive season)
• planning and organizing time and efforts (setting clear progress and performance goals & objectives)
• making running/racing a priority (living a healthy lifestyle all the time and not some of the time)
• having a positive mental attitude (believing you can be successful and help others to achieve also)
• finding solutions to problems (not looking for excuses or allowing setbacks to stop you or teammates)
• working together towards a common goal (acting selflessly for the good of others)
