Sep 12 Super Septo Results

The coaches were very pleased with the work that we put in at this meet.  Not all work is physical - in this case it required mental focus and discipline.  We gave the team some very specific pacing assignments and pacing groups -- and with just a few minor exceptions they did a very good job of hitting paces and staying together.

One measure of our success using this approach is the "spread" between our scoring runers.  This is the time gap between the finishes for the team's first and fifth runners.  The girls did a good job with this - keeping a very narrow gap through most of the race and finally finishing with a 1:16 spread between runners #1 and #5.  The boys did even better - their gap was only 18 seconds!
