Our Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal!
How the Sessions are Different
Do you ever notice when a pitcher sometimes falls over forward after she pitches? She looks like she’s off balance. You’ll hear a coach yell out after every few balls, “Stand tall!”
This has to do with her stride and how she is failing to harness all of the power she created through her drive off of the mound. Harnessing your power with your stride is equally as important as gaining momentum. Strides are for resistance, balance, and accuracy. If, you want to gain velocity, you must practice a great stride.
Every great journey changes you—and my most recent one was 500 miles across Spain with nothing but a backpack, sore feet, and faith to guide me.
For the past five weeks, I stepped away from summer lessons to walk the Camino de Santiago, an ancient pilgrimage stretching from St. Jean Pied de Port in France to the tomb of St. James the Apostle in Santiago, Spain. So as we step into this offseason together, I challenge you to ask yourself: What is your potential in softball?
