Last Week at Candler

One more week!!  We will practice Wednesday, Thursday and Monday at Candler park.  Then on Wednesday, August 1st, we move to Piedmont Park (still at 6:00pm).  We will meet Thursday and Friday (August 2nd & 3rd) also at Piedmont.  On Saturday, August 4th, I will meet with any team members who are interested in helping the team make the leap to State for a relaxed longer run (5-6 miles) in Ansley Park at 8:00am.  There will be shorter options for anyone not ready for that distance.  I will have my bike to carry water bottles.  We will continue the Saturday optional workouts through August and September.  If we can get a consistent group coming on the weekends, we will be ready in November.

PHYSICAL FORMS!!!!!  I must have these completed by August 1st.  Have them in hand when you come next Wednesday.

Almost everyone on the roster has been certified by the state.  If you have friends who want to join the team, get them out now so I can get the paper work done.

After school practice begins on Monday, August 6th.  Bring your running clothes and shoes to school, change in the locker rooms and meet in the gym at 3:55 pm.  We will walk across the steet together and run a workout designed for the weather conditions.  It is never too hot, too wet, too cold for us to practice.  If there is lightning, we will find a place indoors until it clears.  WE ALWAYS HAVE PRACTICE, M-F (5 DAYS) WITH SATURDAYS OPTIONAL.

We have a good group this year.  Summer has been well attended.  The freshmen look strong.  The veterans are showing leadership.  It will all come together.
