Standards

This statistic is pretty cool and something for Haslett distance runners to be proud of . We have 41.6% (10 out of 24) of our boys that have broken 5:00 in the 1600 and 40% (4 out of 10) girls that have broken 6:00 in the 1600.

There are many ways that we can get a higher percentage of runners under these marks. As your coach I'd like to encourage more of our runners to think about what an easy pace is to them. If we can get more girls at 8:00/mile and faster on easy days and more boys at 7:00/mile and faster on easy days these percentages will skyrocket. There will be other things that you have to work on too, but this factor might give you the biggest bang for your buck.
