July 6th - July 11th

Hey Phoenix XC!! Hopefully everyone had a great 4th of July and stayed safe. We are back at it this week so hopefully you didn't take last week off..... If you forgot to log your miles from last week on Strava, please go on and do that. Keep coming to practice as much as you can and if you can't make it talk to a coach and get your runs in wherever you go.

A few things to put on your radar. I am trying to finalize things for a cross country camp and I may have found a place that we can go and camp out but it would be a week later than originally planned. This would be an optional camp like before but would be on Monday August 3rd until Tuesday August 4th. We may still likely do some camp type things close by on July 27th-29th but we will likely not do any overnight camping until August 3rd. More details to come as things are finalized and final approval is given but that is what we are looking at for camp so if you can mark those days on your calendar that would be great.

The Phoenix 5k is August 8th, 2020. We are still planning on it and we need to start getting word out. Talk to your friends and family and get them to come (Flyer Coming Soon). We also need to start getting sponsors and prizes for the race. Go to the Phoenix 5k page for more info on what to do but we need to get on this ASAP. It will be here before we know it.
