Coach, I hope your doing well. I'm very sorry I have not updated you for a while. I think I'm ready to do the 1600 meter program you talked to me about.
I have only had one race since I talked to you last and it was last weekend. All of my races were pr's. I did a 10:07 in the 3000, 27.22 in the 200, and 2:20 in the 800. Thank you again for your help coach. I could not have pr'd with out your help.
Sincerely,
Alex

Hi Coach,
Thank you for the advice. This weekend I had a race in Phoenix, Arizona. I ran the 3000, 800, and 1500. I pr'd in the 1500 with a time of 4:40.07, the 800 was 2:17.07 and in the 3000 I did a 10:17.
Thank you for all your help coach, I couldn't have pr'd without your help. Tomorrow my mom will fax you the schedule.
Sincerely,
Alex
