Change for Wednesday Evening

On our schedule I had Gear West coming to our Wednesday evening practice for a shoe testing/sizing, but unfortunately they will not be able to make it tomorrow. We will still have our workout, just not Gear West. If I’m able to get them to come another night I will let everyone know. 

Thanks!

First Day, First Week of Practice

The first day of the season is here and we will be getting things going Monday afternoon at Riverview Park, on the north side of 105th Ave. (2420 105th Ave) The weather this first week looks positive and should be good for the training we would like to get the runners.  It will be still warm and humid, so we will be watching how everyone is doing and will adjust any workouts if we feel it would be more beneficial.  Also, please bring water, not only for after, but during the workouts.  A good option if you don't have a running water bottle, would be the store bought 16oz waters, and to use the grip handles we handed out to last years team (we will have these on Monday for the new runners or anyone who may need one).

Here are the times and locations, though, for the first week of practice.  I will be giving out a more detailed schedule as well as other information to the runners after the first practice Monday.  Monday's practice will be a little longer then 2 hours long, the rest of the morning practices will be between an hour 15 and an hour and a half long.  Evening practices will have a different focus, mainly recovery, weight training, and a little more fun.  We understand if not everyone can make these practices due to family obligations, but they are still important practices.  These practices will be about an hour 15 mins long 

Also, please remember that runners need to be signed up before they can come to practices!  The final day to sign up to be legal for Varsity at Sections is Monday, September 7th and the last day to sign up for the season in general will be Friday, September 11th.  If there are any questions, please let me know.  

If you have any questions, please let me know,

Thanks
Denny

Below are the Practice Times and Locations for the first three weeks of the season.  We as coaches understand that it is still summer, and vacations may still be scheduled, and we will be understanding of these, but we also want to make sure that the runners are getting themselves ready for the meets and the whole season.

One other item of note, we will be using the Anoka County Parks that are in our community, so please make sure you are supporting these parks and purchase a Park Pass so entrance into the parks is seamless.

Today, Friday, Practice Cenceled

With the rain being steady and looking to be so for a while, we will cancel practice this morning. Do, please, get out and get your work in at some point today, and if you can get together with others, that would be great. Also, reminder that starting tomorrow, we as coaches are in a no contact period until the season starts, which is Monday, August 17.  Registration will be open this coming Monday, August 3rd. Thanks and enjoy the weekend!!

Thanks
