[quote=Anonymous]OP, I know what you are saying. Just a couple of things to keep in mind. I'm assuming your daughter's XC team already has a summer training plan. Anything additional she does with an outside coach should be handled carefully a.) to guard against injury and b.) to not piss off her coach. Some coaches are proud/territorial about their programs and don't like kids working with outside coaches. Assuming your kid's coach is OK with it, subtract those miles from miles run with the team. So, if she's doing a workout with a coach on Tuesday, she skips her team's practice on Tuesday. Make sure she's doing some weight training and eating and sleeping really well. Encourage her to jump in some summer 5ks to practice racing tactics. If she has a teammate who is the next notch up in speed, she could ask them to work with her in practice. Lots and lots of ways to improve! Good luck! [/quote]
