  • Our Stories!

    Great podcast highlighting our stories as track and field and cross country coaches! It's awesome to hear other coaches stories and see how similar so many of our experiences are as coaches but also hear those differences in our paths. It's uplifting to know so many of us are on similar journeys together!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#149: Gill1918 presents Track Tribe LIVE: (Part 1) "One System" with Colin Hunter hosted by Kyle Jones
Q: How do you keep everybody connected across different event groups?
They use a two-part approach: a centralized planning process and synchronized practice schedules, supported by the Mega Sheet and weekly calendars, so players and coaches know who is doing what and when.
#149: Gill1918 presents Track Tribe LIVE: (Part 1) "One System" with Colin Hunter hosted by Kyle Jones
Q: What does One Program, One System look like in day-to-day practice?
Hunter explains that it means collaboration across coaches, with the head coach guiding overarching goals while assistants own their event-specific plans; this prevents silos and ensures every athlete gets appropriate, well-planned instruction.
#147: Gill1918 presents Track Tribe LIVE: (Part 2) "Simple Systems = Big Results" with Trend Deadmon hosted by Kyle Jones
Q: How do you balance athlete load with multi-sport participation?
Maintain open communication, monitor signs of fatigue, and adjust training and rest days to protect long-term health and longevity, prioritizing the athlete's overall development over short-term performance.
#147: Gill1918 presents Track Tribe LIVE: (Part 2) "Simple Systems = Big Results" with Trend Deadmon hosted by Kyle Jones
Q: What would you tell a brand-new coach about developing their program?
Identify your identity, values, and priorities first; let those guide what you include in the program, then tailor the rest around those core commitments to keep it simple and sustainable.
#148: Gill1918 Presents Coach Gail and Shaun Williams “Four Pillars of Recovery” Powered by Coach O
Q: What would you say to an athlete who doesn't know where to start with the four pillars?
Start with one pillar—the superpowers you're already strongest at—and incrementally add the others, building a routine that becomes a habit over time rather than attempting to do everything at once.
