Daughter's first race - tips required!

[Noodley]

IMO, 10 year old girls shouldn't be trianing - they should be doing proper coached sessions that develop skills whilst offering a bit of fun and competition. The fitness will come naturally and you can avoid overdoing it with their bodies. I know a few 12 year olds with worrying knee problems!

Fair enough Dave, I did not let elder noodlette 'train' before she was 13...or even 'go' to track.

Fun sessions should be encouraged...
