November 29th - December 4th - Nationals!!

For everyone not going to Alabama, the only info you need is to confirm you are planning on going to the banquet or not, and to continue to enjoy the break. If you would like to start some biking or swimming or some other cross training exercise (that is not running) you may do so in the middle of the week but you can just enjoy another week off and be ready to start back up next Monday. If you haven't RSVP'd to the banquet yet, please do so here: 2021 Farmington XC Banquet Sign Up

For those going to Alabama the rest of the info is for you. Please read the following info so you know what to expect or to pack. Our flight leaves SLC on Thursday at 12:15 PM. Please plan on getting to the airport by 10:15 AM. Go for a run that morning and either have your family drop you off or carpool to get there. We will meet you at the airport at around 10:15 AM. As of right now negative Covid tests are not required to fly but you will need a mask in the airport and on the flight. Please try to pack all your things in a carry on bag. If you want to check a bag it'll cost $30, but if you can keep it all on a carry on we won't have to worry about losing it or anything like that so have a carry on bag and then a backpack you can slide under the seat in front of you. Pack your spikes and if they say anything during check-in at security tell them you are going to nationals and that you're a runner, they won't pull them out. I have flown many many times with my spikes in my carry on bag. Keep in mind you will want your liquids and such in a small container (shampoos, deodorants, toothpaste etc). They must be 3.4 ounces or smaller. Here is more info on liquids in a carry on bag: TSA Liquid Requirements
