Training in the heat isn’t just about pushing through — it’s about adapting.

I’m training in Texas right now, and let me tell you it’s hot! It’s almost peak summer season, and while the heat can build you up in getting pretty darn fit… it can also burn you out.

In this reel, I’m breaking down the basics of heat acclimation training to help you prepare to run at your best this Fall:
* Ease into running to safely acclimate
* Hydrate smart with electrolytes
* Cooling down core body temps
* Train by effort, not pace

I’ve coached high school state champs, national qualifiers, All-Americans, and military candidates preparing for elite-level fitness tests. No matter your level — heat training is a game-changer when done right.

Watch the reel. Save it. Send it to a teammate.
And if you want a custom training plan built for real-world conditions…

📩 DM the word ‘HEAT’ and let’s get to work.

#HeatTraining #SummerMiles #TrainSmart #RunningCoach #XCTraining #MarathonPrep #EffortOverPace#HeartRateTraining #PPRC #TexasHeat #PerformanceCoaching🏅 Famous Friday: Esteban Quiyono | PPRC Elite

I first heard about Esteban during my first year as Head Cross Country Coach at Saint Martin’s University. The team told me about this guy who ran 14 miles — on the indoor track — completely on his own. Assuming they were hinting he should join us, I got in touch. That’s when I found out he was running 100-mile weeks, by himself, without a coach.

His raw endurance and self-motivation were incredible. When he joined the team, he immediately became one of the hardest workers, bringing energy and grit to the men’s team during the year he was with us before graduating.

Esteban started running after soccer, just to stay active, but it quickly turned into a passion. Soccer’s competitive edge helped, but the mental toughness running demands was a whole new challenge.

Running the Boston Marathon felt like proof of all his hard work paying off. The intensity and shared goals among runners and supporters stuck with him most.

When he learned he needed hip surgery, it wasn’t a total surprise, but it was tough — especially after the first surgery didn’t work. He’s leaned on his support system and focused on staying positive.

Through it all, he’s learned not to tie his identity too tightly to one sport. Now working as a medical assistant and planning to become a doctor, he’s focused on recovery and overall health first.

After healing up, he’s most excited to get back to soccer. Running will always be part of him, but health comes first.

His advice? Be patient and listen to your body. Health always comes first, and even the longest recoveries can lead to the strongest comebacks.

#AthleteJourneyMid-summer miles feeling stale?

It’s normal to hit a slump when the easy miles starts become bland. But what if I told you that mileage building is not exclusive to building your summer foundation? Add these key elements to stay engaged:

✅ Short track reps to keep your legs springy
✅ Mix in hills to build speed and strength
✅ Progression runs to teach pace control and mental resilience
✅ Hit the trails to reconnect with nature and build durability
✅ Strength train to stay efficient and healthy 
✅ Cross train (with intention) to increase volume without the extra pounding

Don’t let summer mileage turn into a mindless grind. Spice it up, stay engaged, and keep your goals in sight.

Not sure where to start?
I offer custom training plans to help you stay motivated, train smarter, and maximize YOUR performance.

#xctf #PPRCrunning🏅 Famous Friday: Cassidy Walchak-Sloan I PPRC Elite

I got into running after I quit soccer. I didn’t take it seriously until my senior season was canceled due to COVID — that pushed me to reach out to my college, and they let me walk onto the team.

I’m most proud of my 6K at D2 XC Nationals, where I became All American running 20:34 breaking the school record. 

My hardest setbacks have definitely been injuries and taking weeks or even months off. But I bounce back by reminding myself I’m so much more than just a runner. I love the sport, but it’s only part of me — it’s my chance to show how hard I can work.

I’m motivated because I want to keep testing my limits and see just how fast I can be.

Favorite workout? Definitely 200s and 400s.
Pre-race ritual? Taylor Swift’s Reputation album on repeat.
Post-race treat? Matcha, all the way.
Current shoes? Hokas, for sure!

Outside of running, I still love playing soccer — sometimes I think it’s even more fun!

I look up to Faith (Kipyegon). Her sub-4 attempt was so inspiring for female runners everywhere.

The best advice I’ve gotten? From my dad: “You may not be the fastest, but you’ll always work the hardest.”

My pre-race mantra? “I am the fastest b**** on this track.”*
I stay focused by enjoying it all — the soreness, the fatigue — it’s all part of the journey.

Right now, my biggest goal is to rest and recover. I’m loving this break from competition and soaking it all in.

#HokaRunner🏅 Famous Friday: Kya Ramirez | PPRC Elite

Before she was chasing down marathon goals, Kya was a level 10 gymnast with a quiet love for running. In 8th grade, she made the switch — and never looked back.

“I knew I wanted to take running seriously after the Oregon State High Performance meet my freshman year. I ran in the 19s for the first time, and my coach’s face at the finish said it all. That moment lit a fire.”

But her story isn’t just about PRs. It’s about heart.

During her senior track season, Kya stepped away from racing to care for her mom, who battles a chronic illness. “She’s my world — no race matters more.” Kya is still her caregiver today, and she’s slowly returning to the sport she loves.

Running has taught her discipline, resilience, and purpose. Now part of PPRC Elite, coached by her former college coach Matt Lowe, she’s training with intention and gratitude. “It feels good to be part of a team that believes in me.”

She’s got her eye on the Boston Marathon — fueled by long runs, golf breaks, and pasta plates. Her favorite mantra?
“You just have to be yourself and go full with confidence and be courageous.” — Gabby Douglas

We see you, Kya! 💪💙

#marathon📣 Episode 2 is LIVE: The Recruiting Game Has Changed

Want to get recruited in 2025 and beyond? You’re not just competing with other high schoolers for a spot anymore.

You’re competing with:
🔁 NCAA Transfer Portal athletes
🌍 International recruits with national-level experience
📚 JUCO transfers who may now get up to 6 years of eligibility

And here’s the truth:
👉 Only 2% of high school athletes go on to compete at the Division I level.
👉 If you’re waiting until spring of senior year, you might already be too late.

In this post, I break down how:
• The transfer portal reshaped recruiting
• International athletes are filling roster spots
• A temporary JUCO rule is shifting timelines again
• YOU can still take control with a real plan

🎯 Don’t just chase a logo. Chase fit, development, and the right support system.
