FANTASTIC first day of practice!!!  The last day to join cross country is Wednesday, August 19th. 

Just a couple reminders, please make sure you have completed the Cross Country Running Google Form Registration 2020

The COVID 19 – Daily Check-In Form/Cross Country Running needs to be done every day before practice.  This is critical and temperatures must be taken each morning before coming to practice.  Thank  you for keeping our team safe and successful.

Social Distancing at practice is going to critical for the success of our team. Please, we need to work together to make this season a success.  With over 100 runners, we must keep athletes in their groups.

Practice

Athletes should be able to run 3 miles comfortably the first day of practice. This is a varsity sport.

To help with social distancing we are going to do a staggered start for practice for the first week. Practices will be about 2 hours in length.

When school starts on September 8th, practice will be twice a day to give students options and hopefully keep our numbers smaller. Morning at 8 am and after school Monday – Friday. More information to follow on morning locations. After school will be at East.
