September 13th - 18th Pre-State Invitational

We had another successful weekend at the BYU Autumn Classic Saturday. Of the 6 races we had we came home with 4 top 2 finishes on the team side which we will be receiving some plaques with our team pictures on them. It was a long 5K but we still saw lots of people getting PRs and running your hardest. Great job to everyone and let's keep it up as our season is flying by. This week we have the pre-state invitational on Thursday. This is an invite for everyone but it will be on the state course that the varsity team will compete on in the end of October. This will be a fun event and it will be held at the Regional Athletic Complex in Rose Park. For spectators it will cost $5 per individual to enter the park, or $15 for a carload with 5 people or less, and $25 for a car full of 6 or more people. Meet schedule is posted below.

This is a crucial time in the season to really take care of yourself. Stay organized with school so you can get plenty of sleep and not be up super late doing homework. Prioritize everything you have going on right now. Make sure you are icing, stretching, and rolling out anything that is tight or sore. It's the little things that will really make a big impact on how the remainder of your season shakes out. 

Just as a reminder, if you have any pictures from any of our meets we have gone to, please upload them to this album: Farmington XC 2021 Photo Album

We also want to thank the Halverson, Waite and May families for their help with our team dinner last week. This week we will have our team dinner on Wednesday night at 6 PM at the Miller Residence (373 Oak Lane in Farmington). The Browns and Petersons will be helping out. Thanks so much!!

Weekly Mileage Chart: This week we will drop our mileage down 10% from last week so we should be at 90% of our max mileage again. If you are planning a max of 40 miles, you should hit 36 this week. The best way to get some more mileage this week is to have a longer run on Saturday and do a few doubles where you run at practice and in the morning. Wednesdays would be great days to get a morning run in.
