Team Practice Schedule

Starting on Monday, June 1st we will be meeting on Monday and Wednesday mornings at 7:00 am at the high school track.  The goal of these morning runs is to give you a group to run with in the mornings.  Practices will remain casual for most of the month of June--come as often as you are able to.  Running together makes a HUGE difference.

If you are hesitant to come run because you're not in very good shape yet, that is the WRONG attitude to have.  We will work with you regardless of your current running abilities.  The only way to get better is to start somewhere...

SEE YOU ON MONDAY!!!

First Meeting

Well, yesterday we had our first meeting, and had about 45 athletes present! We are excited to get going this summer, and even more excited to get to know each one of you. We see great things in our team's future with you runners.

If, for whatever reason you were not able to attend the meeting, see Coach Thompson or Coach Esplin ASAP about the information that was missed. Most importantly, we would like you to get out and get running miles right away. The more miles you run this summer, the better your body will be able to handle the workload we will be putting on it as the season progresses. Start out with what you are capable of, then after a week or two add a mile to your daily runs. Keep building until you are able to run 6-8 miles at a time.
