November 9th-14th - Two Week Break Begins!

Great job to everyone who competed at the Utah qualifier in Spanish Fork this weekend. It was a windy day but everyone ran really well on the 5k course. We saw a lot of kids set some PRs which is always fun to see. Congrats to our boys varsity team for taking 4th in a loaded field and qualifying for the Border wars on the 21st. The results can be found here: 2020 Utah Qualifier Results 

We apologize for delaying the banquet. We still are not sure when we will be able to hold it so stay tuned for further information on that.

We just received word that the Border Wars have been cancelled. We apologize for this but at least we were able to get in most of the season this year. We will take our two week break now. No running this week. If you would like to cross train next week you are welcome to do so. We will still post a mileage progression to follow when we return to the training block but enjoy the time off and get a good reset in. More track info will be coming as we know more what that will look like, as for right now... there is a lot still up in the air. Thank you for being not only amazing athletes but amazing people. We love each one of you. See you guys during track season!!

Utah Qualifier - November 2nd -November 7th

Great job to all of you who are sticking with your training and getting your workouts in on your own. It's great to see so much activity on Strava. Please keep logging on Strava and keep up the good work. This week we have our Utah qualifier in Spanish Fork on Saturday. Registration will close on Monday evening (Tomorrow night) so if you haven't signed up yet, do so ASAP or you won't be able to race. As a reminder, you will need to find your own ride down to Spanish Fork and back, there will not be a bus. Please plan on arriving no later than 1 hour before your race so you have adequate time to pick up your bib and warm up. I also found out that there can be NO SPECTATORS at the race on Saturday. So if you get a ride from a parent, they are not allowed to go out and spectate. We will also not be able to meet for practice until we come back from the soft closure so we will post another workout for you on Tuesday in the GroupMe. 

On banquet news, due to the increase in Covid cases, the school has asked us to postpone the cross country banquet. We will push it to December or possibly January depending on Covid cases and where we are at so stay tuned. We apologize for this but we want to make sure we are being good citizens and doing our part.
