August 10th - 15th - Premier Invite

 THANK YOU to everyone who helped make our 3rd annual Phoenix 5k a success. We had our biggest year yet and our fastest year yet as well. We couldn't have done it without you as athletes getting prizes and sponsors, and you parents for helping. We have the best kids and parents out there!! So a big thanks to everyone involved. The times have been posted to the Phoenix 5k page so if you want to see them look there. 

We also have created a team google photo album so if you have pictures from the 5k Saturday or anything else this season, please add them to the following link: Farmington XC 2020 Album.

We have another big week coming up so pay attention to the dates and times as we are going to do a few heat training days this week. I understand some of you have work still so change it if you can but if not, get your run in on your own and try to get the afternoons off because this will be the last week with a few morning practices. We will be afternoon to prepare for the season.

Our team time trial night is Monday night and we will meet at 8:00 PM. We will gather together on the West bleachers (socially distant of course) and invite your families to come with masks if they would like to. We will go over a few things and announce our team captains for the year and then send the kids to warm up for the time trial. The time trial will be a 2 mile race on the track. This will help us determine our top runners for our first meet this Saturday which will be a varsity only meet.
