September 27th - October 2nd - Davis District Championships

Wonderful job to everyone at Border Wars on Friday. That is a tough 3 mile course and we had a great showing. Race results can be found here: 2021 Border Wars Results. This week we have the Davis District Championships at Layton park. This is a 2.75 mile course that is different than our Pre-region and region course. I will try to locate a map for you guys who haven't run this before but we'll explain it if I can't find one. This is a fun race back at Layton park and will help us improve our speed on the shorter course. Please make sure you are at practice every day this week and taking care of yourselves.

Thanks to the Reaveley family for hosting our team dinner last week. Also a thanks to the Stanger and Andersen families for their help. This week we have our team dinner on Tuesday at the Nelson residence (See address below) and the Haven and Jacobsmeyer families are helping as well. Thank you!

We are nearing the end of the high school season as we have one more week until region. For those who are interested in going to Nike Cross Regionals in November, you are welcome to continue to come to practice and train with us even after the high school season is over, which for many of you will be after Region next Tuesday. Once the high school season is over, which will be after state on October 27th, if you are interested in going to NXR you HAVE to be at practice. We will not take anyone to NXR who is not coming to practice. Going to NXR is not just a vacation we are going to race and we will only take those who are serious about going to compete. More info will come regarding NXR but to start thinking about it we would leave Thursday November 18th and get back really early Sunday morning the 21st. Cost will be somewhere around $200-$250. This is a ballpark estimate as we won't know until we get official hotel rooms and a bus booked.
