Summer's Over! :)

I know none of us are ready for the summer to be over and school to be starting, but ready or not, here we are...

We will be starting our official afternoon practices this next week on Monday. From here on, we expect attendance every day at practices, so be sure you have made yourself available every afternoon throughout the season! Here's what we've got planned for this first week:

Monday, August 17th---Practice at the SHHS track at 2:30 pm.

Tuesday, August 18th--PRACTICE AT SHHS TRACK AT 1:30 PM. WE WILL BE DOING AN END OF SUMMER WORKOUT/POOL PARTY/BBQ, SO BE SURE TO BE THERE!!! Be ready for a run, but also bring your swimsuit and $1.00 for swimming. Everything else will be covered by us. We will probably be gone till 7:30 or so Tuesday evening. PLEASE BE SURE TO BE THERE!!!!

Starting Wednesday, August 19th--Practice at the SHHS track each day at 3:00 pm.

Here's some pictures from our 1st Annual Amazing HawkRace. It was a great success that took us over 9 miles of roads and through six tasks to finish at Spanish Fork Pool for swimming and a BBQ. Thanks to all that came!

Task #1: The team had to perform a song of their choosing on the Stage at Knoll Park. Is this "I'm a Little Teapot"?

Task #2: Don't Ask!!! For this task, the teams had to fill a cylinder with water using only their mouths. Great technique Diana!!

Task #3: Teams were asked to build a tower 12 inches tall using toothpicks and marshmallows... turns out it's a lot harder than it looks! At least they got to rest in the shade for a few minutes!

Task #4: Pretzels anyone? The team had to untangle themselves from their human pretzel. We waited till we were a good 6+ miles into the run to do this so they were all nice and sweaty and "ripe." Hehe!

Task #5: Hungry? Thirsty? Why not take care of both at the same time? The teams couldn't move on until their entire watermelon was consumed. Oh, and they were seeded.

Then came the reward!
