HIGHLIGHTS
This Saturday the team will be split and competing in two meets on the Peninsula . 7 boys and 7 girls will be racing at the Stanford Invitational. The rest of the team will be competing at the Ram Invite in Daly City. Most athletes know which meet they will be attending, however entries will be officially emailed tomorrow.
The workout schedule has changed see the XC Athletes Private Page. Specifically we are moving intervals from Monday to Tuesday. Interval paces are posted on the XC Athletes Private Page.
The email tomorrow will also contain a google form that athletes can use to update their website bios.
WEEK IN REVIEW
This week we had our first Conference meet at Garin Regional Park. Results are available here. The team ran exceptionally well across all genders and levels. Of the 36 different scoring combos from the meet our record was 35 & 1. Particularly impressive were the races of our Frosh-Soph Boys, Junior-Senior Girls, and Varsity Boys. The competition at our next two Conference meets will be much tougher, but we have good momentum.
Thank you to the parents who have volunteered to help out the team. BAF Reps John Battles & Denise Powell, Finance Coordinator Monica Gyulai, and Parent Coordinators Rie Uzawa & Kristina McNaught. I will be in contact with you shortly!
THE WEEK TO COME
Back to School Night is Thursday night! The Thursday run is on-your-own. This run might be changed (shortened) based on the outcomes of Tuesday’a workout.
The Stanford and Ram Invites are this coming Saturday. Parents we will need help transporting athletes. See the schedule for directions. Athletes should review the course maps on the Maps Page.
ON THE HORIZON
Encourage any new athletes interested in sprinting, throwing, jumping or hurdling for the Track and Field team this Fall. To visit our informational page on joining the team.
The first day of Track & Field will be Monday, February 8th. All athletes will need to have completed packets by that date. The majority of Cross Country runners will have an easy time of this as they have already complete their paperwork.
Dates have been set for our 2016 Lake Tahoe Summer camp, so mark your calendars. We will be in South Lake Tahoe from Sunday July 31st through Sunday August 7th.
