Maybe people who stand out on effort or inspirational levels. For example at K-Bell I saw a runner who must of weighed 180-190 pounds win his heat and run close to the 5:00 min mark and he had the most incredible kick I have ever seen. With 300 to go he was like 100m behind the leader and he caught him, and like I said this guy was a hunk and he was moving. I think it would be cool to have articles on people like that too. Also it would be cool if we could get someone to record all of the distance races at Invitationals or take pictures because everyone likes to see themselves running!

I think many appreciate what you do. It might be interesting and take some of the load off you to have guest coaches talk about their philosophies and training regimens. An archived results would be great as well as a calendar of upcoming events with likely participants might be nice.

Perhaps a weekly team ranking from XC Express.<br /><br />I know this is a website that is not making the news but rather sharing it but if you want the website to grow you are going to need articles, pictures from meets, results, rankings.<br /><br />This website has potential to be the best Nor Cal site around (maybe already is) but needs to speak with authority as the voice of Nor Cal.<br /><br />I do like how coaches contribute from rankings to interviews. Keep those. But it could be cleaned up a bit so it is more like a website than a blog.<br /><br />A lot of work... and just suggestions. Take them with a grain of salt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31292861.post-52886117944739427862012-04-03T12:32:23.658-07:002012-04-03T12:32:23.658-07:00I think it'd be cool to start a results page/a...I think it'd be cool to start a results page/archive. Just a side link but one that leads to all the most recent nor-cal results.<br />Also, side note, we rank individual runners alot but what about team rankings? which teams in nor-cal have strong 'all-around' programs.NCSfanboynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31292861.post-19175750120086234482012-04-03T09:46:59.436-07:002012-04-03T09:46:59.436-07:00Very good idea.

Help them share their knowledge. On weights, mileage, coaching philosophy, etc. You can rotate coaches, its ok if they are different have a for and against article. Something to make the site more educational. And I'd love to hear from different coaches.<br /><br />Maybe an ask the experts segment too?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
