Week 10 Notes
This Monday will mark the beginning of the CHSAA season. We are keeping Mon/Tues practice in the AM to avoid the heat. If you are unable to make morning please get the runs in on your own. Athletes please be prepared for storms Wed/Thurs/Fri. We won't keep anyone beyond 5 p.m. even if there are any lightning delays that keep us inside for the beginning of practice. If it's bad enough we will dismiss everyone from practice to go run inside on a treadmill at a gym or rec center.

Please make sure you have the following items for practice. Fall practice will operate just like summer practices, just in the afternoon.   


- Running Shoes
- Water Bottle
- Appropriate Running Clothes
- Running Watch (Bonus)


Please make sure you're hydrating and fueling appropriately throughout the school day. No food and water all day is a recipe for a disaster when you're running in afternoon heat. Switching to afternoon runs can screw up your routines from the summer, and may require some trial and error. 

For those of you bringing an extra bag for running clothes and shoes you can drop them off in either Coach Brandt's classroom (U310) or Selle's classroom at the beginning of the day and then collect them at the end of the day. 

We typically don't use the locker rooms to change out before practice. You can use any bathroom in MVHS that you feel comfortable changing in. Please be changed and be at the track by 3:10 every day that we are on-campus.

Booster Club Donation
We expect to cover all 26' expenses with remaining money leftover which we are putting towards Coach Boele's services. To cover the remaining expenses from Coach Boele we are asking for a flat $50 donation for each athlete this fall to maintain a healthy XC budget. Thank you for supporting the program!
