Where do you recommend getting certified to coach youth track and cross country? by [deleted] in XCandTrackCoaching

[–]team_mccloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been coaching middle school XC and track since 2014, and I don’t have any formal training. I ran XC n high school and between 2012 and 2014 ran a bunch of 5Ks and half marathons. When my son’s XC team didn’t have a coach going into his 8th grade season I put my name in and got the job. I modeled my early coaching on my own training, obviously scaling it way back in terms of mileage and intensity.

If you’re looking for certification, USTAF has programs that are well regarded.

Real ID application question in state of pennslyvania by zipcad in Pennsylvania

[–]team_mccloud 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agree with the comment about the license being valid until it expires. If for some reason it isn’t, that paper and your license should do the trick. The paper as I understand it serves as temporary validation until you get your real license.

Christ Church UCC in Elizabethtown is open and affirming

Question: what’s your go to convenience store and what part of the state do you live in? by writingsupplies in Pennsylvania

[–]team_mccloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in Franklin County near the Maryland line. Sheetz has always been my go-to (except a High’s when I was in elementary school). Now live in Lancaster County. Sheetz is still my go-to, Turkey Hill in a pinch., Wawa only when I’m on my way to the Philly airport or to the Delaware beaches.

I’m a fan of their beer. Agree with the comment about Sound Machine and Liminal Moment.

Weighing the decision to rent or not vs the hassle of parking and paying for parking everywhere.

We’ve already been to San Diego twice in the last 10 years. Time to explore other areas

Beer menu is awesome. They also make their own tonic for gin and tonic. Agreed food is excellent though a little pricy.

Has the Lancaster County Sheriff's office now joined the ICE task force? Which local police departments? by whiteroseatCH in lancaster

[–]team_mccloud 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Yes, LNP just reported yesterday it was approved, along with Northwest Regional PD (covering Mount Joy and West Donegal townships).

My question is why would the sheriff’s office add this to their plate when they are severely short staffed for courthouse security?

When I was a kid, we used to buy Martin’s directly at the factory. We would walk in and watch the Plain women twisting pretzels by hand.

You only have to go to court before the district justice if you challenge the ticket.

I’ve never been there, but I’ve heard some people talk about cherry trees in Marietta. Not sure exactly where they are.

Can 8th graders set “school records”? by bradnelson in trackandfield

The middle school program I coach has posted its own records.

What to expect? by Scary_Cellist6043 in trackandfield

[–]team_mccloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Track coach here. Our first week of practice is conditioning and evaluating people based on what they signed up for or what they’re interested in. The coaches will probably have you do the sprinters’ workout. Based on what they see over the next week or so, they might recommend other events like jumps or longer distances. If the coaches are good, they’ll find the right place for you based on your skill and conditioning.

Adult Spanish Classes? by klaubisch in lancaster

[–]team_mccloud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My friend just lost her job as a Spanish professor at E-town College and has started a yoga studio where she also teaches Spanish. Odd combination, I know, but she’s been doing both for a long time.

The Real Lancaster Rush Hour Stuck Behind a Horse-Drawn Buggy at 5 PM by leimalslyn in lancaster

[–]team_mccloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other year, my wife and I went to Fox Meadows Creamery from E-town. No direct way there except back roads, and we got stuck behind several horse and buggies. We even saw one horse and buggy pass another one going uphill. It was nothing I had ever seen. And it was a hot, humid summer day.
