    AIM Tomorrow!

    I was told they made the program a bit easier, but it still seemed challenging to everyone and there were some injuries so I think they've found a nice balance now with no one dropping out.

    AIM Tomorrow!

    This is the chart they used to calculate our scores so I'd say use this.

    AIM Tomorrow!

    We were told AIM was made, I wouldn't say easier, but they stressed the importance of letting someone know if you were hurt and would stop us if it got extremely hot, which it did. We were also told that the swabs were getting hurt a lot so they were stopped from doing a lot of work. They told...

    AIM Tomorrow!

    They said they did that so we wouldn't be as tired and sore. Definitely helped me!

    AIM Tomorrow!

    Some of you or your sons/daughters have AIM tomorrow morning, or the next two Sundays. I'm heading off bright and early tomorrow because I'm too close for a plane with about a three hour drive. So good luck to everyone, I'm excited for a fun and challenging week.

    Chance of getting into USCGA?

    Thanks so much! That's really helpful and I definitely will shoot them an e-mail towards the end of the summer!

    Chance of getting into USCGA?

    Thanks! Thanks! That's kind of the reason I ask because I go to such a small school that while we're usually league and county champs, we've never made it to state finals.

    Chance of getting into USCGA?

    Thanks for the advice! Not sure if you know, but what's the best way to get in touch with the recruiters? My softball and track skills are average, but with how I'm training and from my previous season I think I have a shot for XC.

    PFE score and performance during AIM

    Right now I'm managing just a 200. If she has access to a track and only runs shorter distances I suggest doing something along the lines of: 1x 1200 (3 times around) then 2x 1000 (2.5 times around) then 3x 800 (2 times around) timing these will help keep progress and build speed. For longer...

    PFE score and performance during AIM

    For her running time, I'm not sure how she's running now, but if not, add some speed workouts in (I have a bunch if you ever need some samples) and not only run for time, but some slower, longer-distance runs.

    PFE score and performance during AIM

    I'm able to do about 20 right now and I'd say running, lifting weights, and doing things like planks really help. I'd suggest maybe trying every day where she tries for just one more every day.

    Which Major to Choose?

    I've done extremely well in Chemistry this year with high A's, I would have been in Honors level, but the scheduling wouldn't work. Physics I'll have to see as I'm taking honors next year. Thanks for the input, that helps a lot!

    Which Major to Choose?

    Thanks. I'm hoping I can manage it. I've made it through pre-calculus with A's as long as I go to extra help and I've heard that professors at the academy are always offering help so that's one less stressor.
