Indoor Update Dec 30

Titan Indoor Track Update Dec 30, 2012

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!I hope your holiday season has been a good one so far. Come Wednesday, it’s time to get back to the grind. When 2013 is ushered in, there are only 136 days until the State Track and Field Championships. That sounds like a long time, but when the day arrives, there is usually a universal feeling from everyone involved: "I can’t believe the season’s almost over". Make sure that when May rolls around, you feel like you have done everything possible to make yourself a better athlete and the TEAM a better TEAM. That’s a great feeling!!!

WEDNESDAY MEETING ROOM 2118Workout and camp info for the remainder week will be covered. Every event should plan on working out each day this week. Availability of facilities will determine just what we focus on in the workouts.

USU CAMPSI’ve attached the flier and registration information for the USU Camps that will be held this Friday and Saturday. If you return the registration by Thursday morning, the cost will only be $30. Have checks made out to "USU Winter Camps". The Friday camps are for the High Jump, Long Jump and Javelin. The Saturday camps are for Sprints, Hurdles, Shot Put, Discus, Pole Vault and Distance. The USU coaches and athletes do a good job- the camp can really be a benefit to many of you.

USU INDOOR MEETOur first meet is less than two weeks away- January 12th. This is a good meet to use as a starting point to gauge your progress throughout the year. It is also fairly low-key, so it is very good for athletes new to the sport. You will be competing against many other athletes new to the sport.

NEW WEB SITEI’ve set up a new web site that contains a calendar, pictures, records, etc. It is one that you can not only access, but also add some things on your own. Here are some of the features:
CALENDAR- has the Indoor and Outdoor Track schedule as well as other entries, such as a few birthdays:
PHOTO LIBRARY- I’ve loaded quite a few pictures from last years’ track. I will load more throughout the season:
FILES- By clicking on files, you can download a copy of the Track Schedule, Indoor Records, Performance Lists, Titan Indoor All-Time Lists, Utah Indoor All-Time Lists, etc. Now, here’s the dangerous news- you have the same access as I do to update and edit the site.
I would like you to add your birthday to the calendar- I’ve already added a few. All you have to do is click on the "+" in the date, type your name, then select "repeat annually". As the season progress, you can also upload pictures. I haven’t played with that option enough to give you much help. The site is a work in progress. Steps as to how to access the site were contained in the email sent earlier. 

Hopefully, this site will help you stay informed and motivated. We will still use the titantrack2012.blogspot.com site, but this one has many additional features.

Have a great New Year celebration, and an even greater 2013!!!
