Our first cross country practice will be on Thursday, August 18th from 8:30 – 9:30 am. This first practice is just for 7th and 8th grade runners. 6th grade runners will have their first practice on Friday, August 19th from 8:30 – 9:30 am. 7th & 8th graders should also attend this practice. Please meet at door M down the ramp on the north side of SMS. We will have a short parent meeting at the start of practice in the gym. Detailed practice information and schedules will be provided to parents & runners. Practices will resume the following Monday thru Friday at 4:00 – 5:15 pm following the school day. *We will run a timed 1 mile run the first day of practice!
** Athletic physicals must be on file to practice**
** Runners will also need to complete additional paperwork (code of conduct, ect). You can get all forms in the main office or I will distribute them at the first practice.
** Please take care of all of your responsibilities.
** It would be a good idea to run a bit over the summer. A good goal would be to run 5 miles a week. This does not need to be done in one day. Split up the miles throughout the week. We want to repeat as Big 11 CHAMPIONS on the girls side and we want to improve and win a championship on the boys side.
