Talent meets technique.

I wonder how much of Steeplechase is also about learning how to run the race. So different from all the others and not everyone trains for it for years. It makes you wonder with more time to train and learn how to run it best for him, what kind of times is Corrigan capable of?

The progression of James Corrigan in the Steeplechase this season is incredible. He’s now the 12th fastest American.

The knock on Eyestone for the longest time was his athletes would peak early

Maybe he is learning from Taylor?

Diljeet has had her own struggles in getting her athletes to peak at the right time (i.e. last cross-country Nationals).

That strikes me as such a tough science to master, probably. With so many factors involved

Probably THE toughest thing for coaches to master.

The other crazy thing is Corrigan did this PB on just a week's rest.
