PRACTICE/MEET INFORMATION

• PRACTICES will be held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after school.

  • Practice will end at 3:45pm and parents will need to pick their children up from school.

  • (Late buses will NOT be available this year, so you or a carpool must pick your child up at 3:45pm.)

  • At each practice, we will work on running form, conditioning, and pacing.

• MEETS (a.k.a. competitive races) A schedule will be sent out prior to the start of the season. 

  • Meets may be held any day of the week (except weekends).

  • Typically, if we have a meet scheduled, we will adjust that week’s practice schedule so that we do not meet more than 3x/week.

  • Meets usually start around 4pm and run for approximately an hour. Invitational meets, to which the top runners are invited, tend to last longer.

  • Meets are held at SHS/Station Park or neighboring school courses. We provide a bus to and from the meets, but families are welcome and encouraged to attend and take their child home from there.

We are looking forward to a great, fun-filled season!
