Track is Back!!

As we approach the new year we are coming up on our indoor track season. We are still unsure what that will look like for competitions during the winter months but we will still plan on holding practices to help us prepare for outdoor track. All those interested in joining our track team this year is welcome to attend our zoom track meeting which will be held on Wednesday December 16th at 6:00 PM. The link for that zoom is posted below. We will try to cover what we know with the season and track but, like everything else this year, we know things could change so stay tuned. If you aren't already, get into the 2nd semester 8th period team conditioning class (track class). We will have practice 2nd semester on B days during that track class. On A days we will have practice after school starting at 2:45 PM. If you need fit for life credit, drop that class and take team conditioning, we can get you fit for life credit.  

For my XC or distance kids, we should start getting our mileage back up. Most of you know what your 100% weeks are, if you don't know because you are new, send me an email (cbrower@dsdmail.net). Below is the % progression we want you to build up to for the next few weeks before we start to meet together. See the chart below to know what mileage we need to be hitting. The idea behind the weekly mileage is that you split it up throughout the week. Don't do 2 super long runs on Friday/Saturday just to hit your mileage because you didn't run Mon-Thurs. Be smart and spread it out over the course of the week.
