The lady Buffs got it done today 💪🏼 💯💯



It came down to the 4x400 (squeaked it out by 1.5 pts).

great way to get in some early season base miles while taking in Colorado's incredible scenery in Leadville.

Track coaches everywhere face significant obstacles. By sharing my challenges, I hope to help other coaches overcome theirs. The only way my track program can excel is through promotion and recruitment. We must work harder than the ball-sports.

Not at Smoky! It’s an honor and privilege to run the 4x400.

Often times “success” is the only thing outsiders see/ recognize. This photo truly gives a perfect depiction of what people see vs. all the “WORK” that is put in along the way.

Track season isn’t too far around the corner, folks! Plenty of Buffs are putting in the work this off season.

Fun bit of info about Jim Thorpe

This is Jim Thorpe. Look closely at the photo, you can see that he's wearing different socks and shoes. This wasn't a fashion statement. It was the 1912 Olympics, and Jim, an American Indian from Oklahoma represented the U.S. in track and field. On the morning of his competitions, his shoes were stolen. Luckily, Jim ended up finding two shoes in a garbage can. That's the pair that he's wearing in the photo. But one of the shoes was too big, so he had to wear an extra sock. Wearing these shoes, Jim won two gold medals that day.

This is a perfect reminder that you don't have to resign to the excuses that have held you back. So what if life hasn't been fair? What are you going to do about it today? Whatever you woke up with this morning; stolen shoes, ill health, failed relationships, don't let it stop you from running your race. You can experience more in life if you'll get over the excuses and get on with living.
You can have reasons or you can have results and you can't have both. (thank you to those that shared this with us to post)

Imagine the power if you have athletes with both - the heart part is a choice...
