As a college coach and also being young I think itās important for coaches to also understand with all the transferring and movementā¦that your current athletes are your biggest recruiters ā¦
Current or former athletes can help or sabotage your program you have to be mindful
Josh Kerr runs an incredible 3:44.3 to win the Fifth Avenue Mile in New York.
The Fifth Ave course record of 3:47.52 was set way back in 1981 by Sydney Maree. Kerr just broke it by 3+ seconds -- three days after racing the Zurich Diamond League.
What a run.

Sometimes you gotta be happy for the things you didnāt getāthose interactions you didnāt get to make. The opportunity you wanted so badly, but for some reason, it got canceled or it was āNOā and sometimes you look back and realize that it couldāve gone bad if God didn't block it
