“I can’t be on the track and field team because my work needs me there early” Some kids need to work Some kids want to work Your coach will make it work You have your whole life to work. Create memories for a few months that last a lifetime. Fight to stay on this team!!!

Morning routine of elite runner: Wake up, down water, eat a banana, sip coffee, go to the bathroom, go run. Morning routine of bro cosplaying "elite": Cold plunge, nasal breathing exercise, supplement stack, meticulous nonsense, no time for full workout because they wasted it

There is no secret. Consistency over intensity. Small wins instead of chasing heroic efforts. Progress beats perfection. Solid work. Repeated for a long time. That's it.

We often hear that high intensity training is a time saver. But it’s not if done right. When you include a proper warm up and cool down, hard workouts take longer than your normal easy run that requires no warm up or cold.

The Starkville track and field team has announced dates for tryouts! #JacketSting

Your brain is designed to stop you. It has a governor that limits your effort to keep you safe. When you're fighting for yourself, it’s strict. When you're fighting for something bigger than yourself, it opens the tap. You need a stronger why.

It’s the season opener! Track & Field begins the season today at Yellow Jacket Stadium! #JacketSting
