Guys......how stoked are you about running on a college team!!?!?!?
I'm losing my marbles with excitement.
All my friends who are running in college right now are telling me all these wonderful things.
Problems with high school teams=
Coach is not necessarily an expert
Teammates don't take running seriously and most aren't very good
Teammates can't really push you during workouts if you're the #1
Only get to travel to meets and stay overnight once or so per season
Resources like pool, trainers, weights are spread all over the place (inconvenient)
COLLEGE TEAM=
Coach is a full time expert fully invested in athletes success
Teammates are passionate about running and are all "good"
Older runners will pull you along during workouts making you improve faster
Get to travel to meets every few weeks which is super fun
Resources are all in one place and readily available
So excited!!!!!!
