About me

My name is Robert O’Rourke.  My family and childhood friends all know me as Robby.   I have coached track and field for 40 years.  Those who I met during my coaching career know me as Coach Bob O’Rourke.

I am a 73 year old retired school teacher and track coach who returned to running 5 years ago.

This blog is designed to share with track fans of all ages the saga of an older guy who made the decision to get back into shape after 40 years.  I am new to blogging.  So this will be a learning process. I hope to bring to the reader thoughts about training and some interesting stories about the people I have coached with and trained. So let’s get started.
