Nil Sine Numine Nothing Without Providence   Tuesday May 31st 2016...I sat in my car staring at the beautiful track at Palmer Ridge High School. As the rain fell steady from the storm clouds enveloping Monument, Colorado...My thoughts raced around the track in my head. I had already accepted a School Counseling job at Palmer Ridge to take over for my close friend Kelly Christensen. I would also be taking over his head coaching duties for Track and Field and Cross Country. That day, it all flashed before my eyes. I remember sitting in my car reflecting back on the road I had taken to get to that day. I recalled taking over for Mike Callor in 2012 as head coach at Dakota Ridge Track and Field Cross Country. I remembered the day in 2013 at the State Track Meet I found out Johnny Halberstadt had sold the Boulder Running Company. I thought about the day in August of 2013, my disdain for our new ownership overwhelming me, that I woke up and decided to become a School Counselor..
