What Performance-360 athletes are saying:
This year during the track season, Coach Conrad has poured knowledge into each member of his team. When I decided to run track, I did not know what I was signing up for. I had run for Coach Conrad before (Cross Country), but I was still nervous that it would be something I did not enjoy. I was wrong to think that. This season has been a season of great friendships and growth both in strength and mentally. Coach Conrad has not only taught his team to run well, but also done it in such a way that most of us look forward to coming back day after day.

I would like to personally thank you for showing me how far I can go, for giving me a positive outlet and environment, and changing how I view myself. You have taught me beyond what I can describe that is tangible and is able to be understood. I will never look back and regret my decision to run with you.

I want to thank you for everything you have done for me. If I had not done track and had not met you, I would not be the runner I am today. I would still be dreaming of breaking 6 minutes in my mile, I wouldn't have anchored for the number one 4 x 4 team in North Carolina, and would not be first in the 800 for North Carolina. I owe my success to you (and your bear crawls).

When I came my first day to spring track, I was nervous and only knew a few people. As the weeks went by I made great friendships with people and enjoyed their company. Everyone on the team is so sweet and a joy to be with. My seasons with Performance 360 have been amazing.

The thing I like the most about cross country is that I learned to like running. We also learned that we need to push through pain, both mentally and physically, and the outcome will be very satisfying.

I've enjoyed my first season of track. I met a lot of great people, I have the best coach that I have ever known, and I've learned a good amount. The most import things I've learned though are: to be patient, work hard, always, always, always try as hard as you can, don't take shortcuts, do all the extra stuff, and always be thankful.

It makes me sad that I won't be able to run cross country...because I will be at college next year. But I will always remember them and what I learned there. Thank you coach for always investing in our lives, even when we made it hard. It has made immeasurable impact in my life.

A good amount of Physical Education courses are strictly sports. Others focus more on anatomy and health. My P.E. class this year has taught me significantly more than any other Physical Education course I have taken. In this class you learn life lessons, lessons that you can really benefit from if you were to put them into practice.

I learned to avoid comparing myself to others, have confidence, and try to perform to the best of my ability. Thank you Coach Conrad for teaching me these things, and for believing in me even though I didn't at first. It's easy to see how much you care about each person on the team, and work to help them improve.

Cross Country has helped me to realize that if I believe in myself, then I can achieve things I thought were not possible of myself. Of all the coaches I have had, Coach Conrad has pushed me the hardest, given the greatest results with his workouts, and believed in me more than any other coach. Some coaches will tell you to do things that they don't do themselves, but Coach Conrad lives what he tells us to do. He is a good role model for us. Coach is a person who inspires respect.

Thank you, Coach, for a wonderful season! I can't say enough about how much you taught me and how much I appreciate everything you have done. I look forward to next season and another great experience!
