He covers the following: Coaching staff event assignments (based on the number of possible assistants available), how to best utilize managers, periodization training ideas, important things to consider in your practice planning (seasonal, weekly, and daily considerations), a sample practice format, warm-up and cool down ideas, how to practice events if you do not have an indoor track, how to practice events if you do not have an outdoor track, ideas for rainy day practices, and motivational ideas.
