March 29th - April 3rd - Spring Break

Great job to everyone who competed at the Davis District Championships in Syracuse this past week. We placed 3rd in the District on the Boys side and 4th on the Girls which is not bad for a program that is still getting up and running. We had some awesome performances and a big congrats to Marianne Barber for being named the Davis District Outstanding Track Athlete of the Meet. Results can be found here: 2021 Davis District Championships. We also want to acknowledge the following individuals who have earned state qualifying marks which guarantees their participation at State in May:

Marianne Barber: 100 M (12.43), 200 M (25.92), & 400 M (58.01)

Jayne Packer: Long Jump (16'-02") & High Jump (5'1")

Henry Prusse: 400 M (50.54)

Ethan Peterson: 3200 M (9:32.48)

Tyler Aposhian: Pole Vault (9'-09")

Porter Robb: Pole Vault (9'-09")

This week we have Spring Break and as such we will have a few practices in person for those who are in town. Those who aren't in town, workouts will be posted on Train Heroic so make sure you are still getting your workouts in. When we come back from Spring Break next week we have two meets, one on Thursday @ Bountiful and our home invitational on Friday (The Phoenix Fire Fest). Those who won't compete on Friday will compete on Thursday and vice-versa. 

On the Phoenix Fire Fest, it is important that everyone come and help out. We want this to be one of the most premier invites in the state and in order for that to happen we need everyone's help. We need each of you who won't be competing on Friday the 9th of April to sign up for a job. You can do so at this link: 2021 Phoenix Fire Fest - Team Help Sign Up  We cannot run this event without the hands of many individuals. If you have parents who want to help out please have them email me at cbrower@dsdmail.net and I will assign them a job to help out at.

March 22nd - 27th | Davis District Championships

Great job to everyone who competed at our JV meet at Box Elder this past Wednesday. We saw a lot of fun PRs and are excited to see how we do the rest of the season. If you haven't seen those results, they are posted here: March 17th JV @ Box Elder Results

We also had one of our athletes travel down to St. George to compete at the Snow Canyon Invitational. Shout out to Simon Mitchell for setting two new PRs in the 1600 (4:29.96) and 3200 (9:33.97) and for earning that State Qualifying standard in the 3200. Congrats Simon!

We are excited for the upcoming Davis District Championships this Wednesday and Thursday at Syracuse High School. This is a two day meet where half of the field events will take place on Wednesday, half on Thursday (see schedule below). Trials for sprint events will be held Wednesday with finals (top 8) on Thursday. We will only be taking the athletes who are competing in the meet so if you are not on the competing team and you would still like to attend, you are welcome to meet us at Syracuse high school. Cost to attend will be $3 for adults and $2 for students. Entry will be located on the South side of the stadium. 

If you are interested, we are going to be doing Yard Signs for our Track team. They are $10 and you can put your first name on the sign. It will have our track logo for this year and your name. Jennifer Mackintosh, Kaya's Mom, is heading up this project. If you are interested in buying a yard sign to put up at your house, please send $10 via Venmo to "Jennifer-Mackintosh-1" with the first name you would like listed on the sign. Please do this by Monday March 29th so she can get them printed and back to you after Spring break.

If you are not Competing Wednesday & Thursday at the District Championships, we will still hold practice as usual, make sure you are still attending practice. 

Please make sure you are attending practice as much as you can. As a heads up, we will be meeting during spring break on a few days (depending on your event coach). If you are leaving town for Spring break please talk to your event coach and make sure you check train heroic for your workouts. DON'T TAKE A VACATION FROM YOUR TRAINING. When we come back from Spring break we will have 2 meets a meet for the entire team on April 8th and our Phoenix Fire Fest Invitational on April 9th. 

This Thursday (March 25th) is the end of 3rd term. Please make sure you have all your grades "ON TRACK" and good to go, otherwise you will not be eligible for competitions after Spring Break. We will also have another Covid Testing this Thursday. When I know the time I will let you know but plan on getting testing again on Thursday. Thanks!

March 15th - 20th - JV Meet @ Box Elder

THANK YOU to everyone who helped at our first meet this past week. We couldn't have done it without everyone's help. For our first meet, despite some cold and wet conditions we saw some great marks and are off to a great start for the year. Here are the results if you haven't seen them yet. This week we have a JV meet @ Box Elder and it is actually on Wednesday, it got moved to Wednesday due to some scheduling issues. See info below for bus times. 

We are also just 2 weeks away from the end of 3rd term. Your eligibility for our meets in April and May will be based on your grades from 3rd term. Please get those grades up and if you are OFF TRACK in any PFAs or Projects, get those in. Take advantage of this week for the extra long MAPS class periods and notes on PFAs to get caught up where you need it. Do not wait until the last minute. As a reminder it is only one F and above a 2.0 to be eligible but I would like ZERO Fs on 3rd term so it isn't a problem. 

Also make sure you are at practice EVERY DAY. If something rare comes up, talk with an event coach, don't just not show up. If you miss the practice where we sign everyone up for the meet this week, you will not get signed up and you will not compete. 

Now that we have started our season, we have lots of pictures we'd like you to share with everyone so if you have any pictures from the meet this past week and any future pictures you take, please post them to our 2021 Farmington Track Photo Album.

Our first track meet is here! Thursday we host the first meet of the season at Farmington High. It will be a tri-meet against Bonneville and Woods Cross. Everyone is expected to be there. If you don't have your physical done and handed in by Thursday, you won't be able to compete, but still come to help out with the meet. We need all the help we can get. If you have parents that are interested in helping out please have them fill out this March 11th Home Meet Sign up Link. 

The meet will start at 3:30 and we will get through each event as soon as we can. Please don't ask us what time exactly your event will start because it is hard to know.
