August 16th - 21st - Freber Classic

Our first meet of the season is upon us. We have had to make a few changes to our meet schedule due to the Weber State meet cancelling their invite and as such a few things got moved around. Long story short, this Saturday we are having our first meet of the 2021 XC season at Fremont high. The meet will start at 9 AM and a more detailed schedule of the meet is listed below. I know this change may have conflicts with some of your plans for the weekend before school starts so if you are not able to attend the meet this Saturday please fill out this form so I know not to sign you up. 2021 Farmington XC Race Conflict Form

Because our first meet is this week we are having our 4th annual time trials night Monday night. The time trials will start at 8 PM but you don't need to arrive any earlier than that. We will all arrive at 8 PM and gather in the West bleachers. We will do a quick parent meeting, announce our team captains and send the teams to go warm up. By the time we get through the meeting, the warm up and announcements we will click on the stadium lights and do a 2 mile race under the lights to determine the top 10 spots for the boys and girls to race in the varsity race on Saturday. Some races will have 10 spots for varsity, some will have only 7. For our first race we can enter our top 10 runners into the varsity race. So based on our time trial night as well as our Phoenix 5K we will determine who our top 10 are to represent Farmington at the varsity race Saturday. Everyone who is not a part of the top 10 will still race Saturday in the JV race (see schedule below). 

As a part of our parent meeting at the time trial night we will be announcing info on team dinners. If you are interested in helping out with a team dinner, please fill out this form: 2021 XC Team Dinner Parent Form. More info to come Monday night.

Weekly Mileage Chart: This week we will stay at 90% of our max mileage. So stay the same as you were this past week. We should be about 90% of our max mileage. If you are planning a max of 40 miles, you should hit 36 this week. The best way to get some more mileage is to have a longer run on Saturday and do a few doubles where you run at practice and either in the morning or night (depending on when we have practice).
