Camp, Time Trials, and August 4-9

This week is the official start of the season, with the first races happening across the state this weekend.  We will be at camp Monday - Wednesday, have practice Thursday afternoon and Friday morning, and have Time Trials on Saturday morning.  

This is the last week of Summer mileage, please report last week's mileage if you haven't done so! 

We will have Time Trials on Saturday at 7:00am. at Copperton Park in Copperton Utah.  Parents and family are welcome to come watch and cheer on athletes that morning, and we would encourage it.  Athletes need to be at the park at 6:30am and ready to race, no spikes.  We would like everyone to sign up and bring a breakfast item to share.

Girls will race at 7:00am and Boys will start appox. 7:25am.  The course will be 3 x 1 mile loops. Top 7 in each race will race varsity at Park City Twilight on Thursday next week.  Remember the minimum standard to be able to race, for those slower runners, is sub 30:00 minutes for girls and sub 26:00 minutes for boys. Those who are not at Time Trials will not be allowed to race the first race, they will be a spectator and be expected to come with the team and do a workout instead.  Camp and Time Trials should be a priority to every athlete, these a long with summer miles are our tryouts!

Eligibility is due this week before Time Trials!  Please get this taken care of.  We talked at our May 21st parent meeting about Eligibility being completed before summer started and most athletes are not done at the end of the summer.  This has to be done to be on any sports team to be on the team and be able to compete.  See the Eligibility Page above for links and other info.  Participation Fees and Uniform Fees will be added to pay on Skyward once Eligibility is complete and we have a team roster.  These fees will need to be paid before the first race next week. 

If you chose to not attend camp (note that might not be an optional thing in the future), then you are expected to train on your own and do similar mileage to what the rest of the team and all the coaching staff will be doing at camp.  

Those going to camp, we will meet at 6:25am in the front of the High school tomorrow.  Check the Itinerary on the Overnight Travel Page, especially the camp checklist at the end.  Messages for camp will be sent on the Camp groupme from here on out.  

We will start afternoon practices next week at 3:30pm daily, these are not optional.

Team Spike Night will be at Run Gr8 on August 12, see flyer.

The TEAM STORE has been reopened until our first meet next week
