Thanks to everyone who made it out to the meeting today, Saturday September 12th at Westenfield Park! We had a great coach's meeting with the following YG's coaches:
  • Emily Cunningham
  • Emily Baker
  • Tim Lucason
  • Brandon Batiansila
  • Kim Batiansila
  • Tracy Lord
  • Cindy Samok
  • Melissa Brierley
  • Matt Fouchek
  • Allison Phillips
  • Jake Hyslop
  • Courtney Ewing
  • Terra Chick
  • and David Reiseman with Austin Speedsters
It's always so great to get like minded people together and talk about ways to improve what we do and learn and grow from each other. Here is what we discussed at our meeting: 

Agenda
1. Introductions


2. Share new goals for this semester

a. Continue to partner with other running and biking groups in order to keep spreading our mission of making fitness fun.
b. Increase our Eanes ISD market by adding more running and biking groups to new schools.


3. YG’s events we are promoting
a. Epic Race – October 17th http://www.jeremiahprogram.org/locations/austin/
i. The Epic Race that is a fundraiser for the Jeremiah Program, an organization that is helping single moms get a degree while providing them housing and childcare services. The Epic Race is a fun and casual fundraiser that will take place Saturday, October 17 starting at 6pm at a private home near the Salt Lick. There are 12 teams of 20 participants that will take part in fun events such as
egg toss, volleyball with an oversized ball, etc. I believe that Ignite is one of the teams. Prior to each event, two teams will each have one coach/referee that will give them the rules and help them out. This is where you and Young Guns can come in. We are looking for six coaches to help out that night.
b. Speedsters Cross Country Run – September 25th
c. Run to the Sun Fun Run – Friday March 4th


4. Group Sharing
a. What works:
b. What you need:

    YG's Mission:

    Our focus is on improving running & biking endurance and overall fitness, develop
    "functional" strength, flexibility, and improve core strength and body alignment. Further, participants will likely see improvements in self- image, confidence, attitude, social-interpersonal- relationship-skills, as well as ability to focus on tasks and schoolwork.


    YG's Group Rules

    1. Make sure you check in with a coach when you get to YG's
    2. Make sure you stay with the group at all times
    3. Be ready to run and have some fun every time 
    4. Try your best, work to improve, and encourage others
    5. Don't leave YG's without first signing out with a YG's coach

    YG's Warm-Up

    1. Fast Feet
    2. Jumping Jacks
    3. Star Jumps
    4. Push-ups
    5. Squats

    YG's Traditions

    Here are some traditions we'd like to try to use across all groups. 
    - To help with pacing, animal terms:
    • Turtle - Walk
    • Bear - Jog
    • Horse - Run
    • Cheetah - Sprint
    - Always have a game for the last 10 to 15 minutes
    - Last 2 to 3 minutes as an entire group to share announcements. 
    - If there are any upcoming birthdays or events runners are running in, participants circle around the honoree, run in place, and the person in the middle shouts out Young while the runners around the circle shout guns (repeat 4 to 5 times)
