4th July Week - Moratorium

Hey guys, we had another great week of training this past week with an awesome time trial. The times from the time trial are posted in the NERD REPORT which you can find on the left side of the blog home page. Make sure you go to the correct year but you should be able to see your times as well as previous years times if you have been running with us the past two years.

This week it is the 4th of July and we typically have a week long moratorium where we can't practice at all but we are able to hold practice on Monday so we will have it tomorrow but the rest of the week we won't be able to have practice so you'll need to make sure you get some runs in. You can meet up with others on the team if you want. Please just make sure you log your miles on Strava. This is a big week and we don't want to undo anything we have done up to this point so pack those shoes wherever you are going for the week and log some miles.

Have a HAPPY and SAFE 4th of July!!

Here is the plan for the week:

Monday June 29th - 7 AM Girls @ Farmington Park (Behind the Rec center on 650 West)
                               7:30 AM Boys @ Farmington Park (Behind the Rec center on 650 West)

Great week of training last week. It was fun to be back with everyone again. Keep coming to practice and tell your friends to come too! We'd love to have them. Thank you to everyone who has been logging your miles on Strava. If you haven't been, please go back in and start doing that. Also one last reminder for everyone who HAS NOT filled out the summer XC form, please go and do that now so I can add the fees to your MyDSD and so we know for sure who is doing summer XC with us. - "If you haven't already, please fill out this Farmington Summer XC 2020 Registration form and I will just add the $30 summer fee to your MyDSD where you can pay it online (or you can always go to the main office and take care of it there)."

Summer XC 2020 is Here!!

Summer cross country is upon us! We have been waiting to meet back up and we are finally able to. We are so excited for the team we have this upcoming year. We are going to be very competitive on both the boys and girls side and we're really looking forward to seeing everyone improve their times this season. Each Sunday night this blog will be updated on the weekly practice schedule including locations and times. Please refer to it often as there may be last minute changes if something comes up but that should be a rare occasion. If you have friends who don't want to run the season but want to train with us in the summer they are welcome to do that.

If you haven't already, please fill out this Farmington Summer XC 2020 Registration form and I will just add the $30 summer fee to your MyDSD where you can pay it online (or you can always go to the main office and take care of it there).

Please come as often as you can. We understand you have trips or things going on so if you can't make it, please be sure to talk to a coach and to still get your run in for the day wherever you are and LOG YOUR MILES ON STRAVA!!
