The materials shown in the list will help my cross country and track students become faster, stronger, and more agile when it comes to racing against top competitors. Any little item makes a huge change to our student-athletes being the best and reaching their full potential! They will learn how to grow as a team player and a strong competitor. We, as a team, share the idea of being as one family and as one unit. This will allow our students to feel as part of something larger than themselves and have them push each other to their limitless power. The watches are for my students to learn the essence of timing and keeping themselves accountable on times. They cannot afford to buy the watches that are needed for timing and mapping out miles. This will be ultra-beneficial for them. The agility ladder, medicine balls, and balance trainer will definitely work on the core structure of each runner. This will enhance our core strength and allow us to be strong in the core abdomen. The cones will make our legs move stronger and instruct our kids to stretch and reach for each cone to make our stride lengthen over the course of time. The power sled is to work on our form and be strong with each sprint interval.
