December 21st-January 3rd: Winter Break Schedule

Winter Break Training
Vista, I hope everyones break is off to a great start, and you are remembering to eat a lot! Enjoy your time off from school, and relax a little bit w/ your family and friends. Training Peaks has been updated for everyone through January 10th. Please take a few minutes in the next few days to know what runs to be doing over break. Training  is mostly focused on easy running with a few days ending in strides, or short hill sprints. Find 45 mins to an hour each day to get in your training and you will be ready when we come back the first week in January.  

Where I would like everyone to be when we return to school on the 4th is at a spot where you are able to comfortably accomplish the work that is scheduled. Please take a look at your Training Peaks App sometime in the next day or two to know what January 4th-10th looks like. Although it is not a lot of quality, it will be challenging if you take the next 2 weeks off during break. 

We are meeting several times over the next 2 weeks for those that are in-town (7 times to be exact). If you are free and want to come run with your teammates please check the schedule below, or the calendar page.  

Track Winter Conditioning Registration
Please register for off-season winter track before the official start date on January 4th. We will meet 5 days a week during the winter, with opportunities to get together on Saturday's for long runs at some new locations near the metro area. The cost for the winter is $100 to participate, which will go to help compensate our assistant coaches for their time during the months of December, January, and February.

Spring Track & Field Schedule and California Trip
A tentative schedule is now available to see on our calendar page. This is not final yet, but it should be by the time we return in January. We do plan to travel again this spring with the track and field team to the Arcadia, CA Invitational April 7th-10th. We also have the option to send athletes to the South Pasadena Tiger Invitational that same weekend (20 mins from the Arcadia Track) if they end up missing the cut into Arcadia. Here is the preliminary info about the California trip. 

Requirements to be considered for the out-of-state trip in April
1.    Follow all team policies
2.    Be at all practices/competitions during spring break (Centennial League                     Qualifier on Thursday, March 24th) 
3.    Make the minimum marks for acceptance into the meet
4.    Marks can be attained at indoor meets during the winter
