About Us

Welcome to the LCA Speed Journal! Our team is dedicated to achieving excellence on and off the track, and we strive to provide a supportive and competitive environment for all of our athletes.

We'll be using this site to track things like our schedule, practice logs, and stats.

Two meets in one week is a lot, but our Lions are rested up and ready to lace up with their teammates for a relay-only meet out at St. Croix Prep!
They’ll race against relay teams from St. Croix Prep, St. Agnes, Mounds Park Academy, West Lutheran, and Eagle Ridge/ISM.
The meet starts at 4:30 — let’s cheer on our Lions for some Friday Night Relays under the lights!

🏃Relay Races: A Team Event🏃‍♂️
Relays bring the team-sport element to track and field, grouping 4 athletes to take the baton around the track as a cohesive unit.
They bring out school spirit and heated competition to each meet, and they take many different forms.
——
We will continue to explore the events of track and field over the next few weeks — Next Up: Jumps!

Spring Break didn’t stop the grind. 💪 While most were resting, our Lions were out here sprinting, jumping, lifting, and building the foundation for a BIG season ahead.

More than just training—we’re building speed, power, and a team that’s ready to take on anything.
Fast work. Strong minds. One team.

And we’re just getting started. 🔥

You’ve run the killers. 💀 You’ve done the up-downs. Pointless, punishing, and never actually making you faster.
That’s not how we do things.
Mindless conditioning doesn’t make you faster in the game. Moving fast makes you faster in the game.
——
At Liberty Track & Field, we train with purpose.
Smart work. 🧠 High Recoverability.
Speed isn’t built by grinding yourself down — We train to move fast, not just to move. ⚡

Isometrics serve a unique purpose in the base-building phase of our program. They allow us to not only train the muscular strength in positions important to our sport, but also to help train our brain, and to build and maintain healthy tendons.
We wire better, fire better, and stay healthier because of their inclusion in our training!
