#30	Xc May 22, 2008 at 9:08pm Get that kid some short shorts! reply
#29	Okay May 22, 2008 at 8:30pm Way to sound like a jerk there, the kid is only in high school and has already run 13:55. Only a few runners have gone under 14 in high school and doubtful that you're one of them. reply
#28	Weestside May 22, 2008 at 8:27pm Derrick is out for the season with mono now.....working out and racing a little too hard and too much. Him and Fout are both out. Pretty sad. reply
#27	Staterunner013_x May 22, 2008 at 8:11pm Who cares? I can do way more intense workouts than this. Derrick can't say anything until he can go sub 4. - AJ reply
#26	Az May 22, 2008 at 6:49pm they obviously kno whats going on after running a 13:55...so i wouldnt try to criticize what the coach is doing reply
#25	Gs May 22, 2008 at 6:11pm How many 1000's and 300, did they run? reply
#24	Yeah May 22, 2008 at 5:50pm the coach is so intense its great. reply
#23	Asdf May 22, 2008 at 5:31pm "However I cannot understand this being called a race simulation when they are running 41's for 300." -Confused...well if you had listened to what the coach had said before the workout maybe you'd understand. The 300's were not intended for race simulation, only the 1k's were. The 300's were for getting them on there feet and running fast. reply
#22	Notspikes May 22, 2008 at 4:58pm Derrick is wearing the nike mayfly. reply
#21	WAXC May 22, 2008 at 3:47pm sweet reply

#18	G Unit May 22, 2008 at 1:11pm DW I like it. Keep up the good work. reply
#17	Confused May 22, 2008 at 12:45pm Look I have much respect for every single athlete in this video and clearly the coach has done things correctly till this point with them. However I cannot understand this being called a race simulation when they are running 41's for 300. reply
#16	WarriorXCTF_x May 22, 2008 at 12:42pm What song is playing? reply
#15	Dean Rugh May 22, 2008 at 11:55am Have you noticed that in collegiate and elite workouts they do a running start. In high school it's always a standing start. reply
#14	Answer May 22, 2008 at 11:28am probs because there were a bunch of people getting in his way or walking on the track near him. if you have ever run a really tough workout you know a simple inconvenience can turn into anger because of how hard your running reply
#13	Question May 22, 2008 at 11:18am What was Chris' anger over the track situation?? reply
#12	David Williams May 22, 2008 at 9:13am The Kids on the Track were there for a youth meet Spikes were worn for the 100's only I believe reply
#11	David Williams May 22, 2008 at 9:13am An the rest varied between sets. It wasn't a certain amount. I will get the song names up in a bit reply
#10	Nut Up May 22, 2008 at 9:03am Nice Long Shorts. reply

#7	Nick Snyder May 22, 2008 at 6:40am It looks like they are having some type of meet. reply
#6	Adam Ward May 22, 2008 at 5:58am is that a crowd...at their practice??? reply

Neuqua Valley Workout

November 25, 2008

Flotrack's David Williams recently attended a practice at Neuqua Valley high school in Naperville, IL. Neuqua Valley has had a long tradition of excellence and most recently won the Illinois state Championship in 2007. They capped off their season with a win at Nike Team Nationals in December. Here several members of the team prepare for their upcoming Sectional races. Leading the group is Chris Derrick who ran 13:55 in May at the Arcadia Invitational. This was the fastest Junior time ever run in high school only competition. That run put Chris in some pretty elite company as the last two juniors to run under 14 minutes were Olympic hopeful Galen Rupp and Marathon trials runner-up Dathan Ritzenhein. Chris is followed closely by Danny Pawola, Jim Riddle, and Aaron Beattie. Both Pawola and Riddle have run 9:11 for 3200m, and the youngster Beattie has run 9:24 as a Sophomore.
