Initial Colorado Trip List

Below is a list of Girls and Boys that are being initially invited to our 2nd Summer Colorado training trip and the time standards that we used to figure these invitations, but also the time standards for the current Track season for those that are currently not on the list to aim for to be invited as well.  These were times that the Captains of the 2019 Cross Country team came up with and felt were fair. We will also have up to two Girls and two Boys that will be coaches invites.  The final list of invitees will be posted on May 16, thus giving everyone who has been invited time to decide if they can go as well as start preparing themselves with their training for the trip.  We would like the final decisions made by May 23rd so we can let everyone know the final cost. (I have already talked to a few that are on our list of possible/probable and plan to talk to a few others)

We are wanting this trip to be something that will help the runners come up with goals that will help themselves as well as the team improve but also give them an opportunity to get some training in that we would not be able to get in here.  We understand that there are family trips/vacations planned for this time and some that may not want to go, so we understand that everyone that is invited may not be going with us.

This is a trip for Cross Country, and even though we are giving time standards for Track, those are just secondary to what happened during the past CC season.  With that, someone needs to have been on the CC team this past season in order to be considered, even if they make standards in track and are intending to run CC in the fall.

The trip will be in June, leaving on Saturday the 15th and coming back on Friday the 21st. We will be staying in a couple of homes that we rented near Silverthorne, CO, which is west of Denver and not far from Breckenridge.

The overall cost is going to be not set until we know how many will be coming with.  The goal is to have 26-27 total people.  The cost will be a little higher this year due to the fact that the additional house we will be renting will be higher in cost than last years.  But, the fewer people that come with, the more the cost will be.  However, the cost will pay for lodging, transportation and gas, and food (which we will purchase when we get there).  We will overestimate so we have extra money in case we need it.  If we get back and still have money, we will divide it up and give back to everyone.  We are going to rent two 15 passenger vans, which will help with not having to put miles on individuals vehicles as well as reduce the number of vehicles we bring.

At the time that we have our final list of invitees, we will also publish our time Standards for the upcoming Cross Country season for the 2020 training trip so the runners have a goal to start working for during the summer training months.

We will be sending out more information when we get closer to the trip as well as when we post the final list.  If you know you will not be able to go and you have been invited, please let me know so we can take you off the list.

If there are any questions, please let me know,
Thanks
Denny
