Living on the east coast, I can attest to having two days of semi-warm air come through and all my peers and I agreed the air was strangely more difficult to breathe than it had been the last several weeks.
You can be one of two coaches. Say your athlete looks worried about the air temperature, allergies, breathing, or whatever along those lines. You can be a no nonsense coach that ignores his athletes and tell him to suck it up. Or you can be the coach who listens to his athletes, and whether or not it works, puts ten cents of cloth over a guy's mouth so he'll stop worrying about it and just go run his race. If Rupp is my athlete and he feels better on the line wearing it, then I'm all for it.
BOOM.
Well said
