Thank you to everyone who came out to our XC Info Meeting on May 9th, below are a few important reminders & highlights:
Summer Conditioning is VERY important as it builds the base necessary to reach your potential during the Fall XC Season. We will not only run, but have strength workouts. We need each runner to focus on the mileage, consistency and attitude that makes us a great team.
- Varsity runners will begin summer conditioning on 6/3/19; all other runners will begin on 6/10/19
- We'll meet @ Tribble Mill Park, Mon thru Thurs from 7:30AM to 9:30/10:00AM (changes to this schedule will be communicated exclusively via Remind101, so be sure you get signed up today: Text @ghscros to 81010).
- Come prepared with good running shoes; water bottle; a small nutritious snack; and a towel
- Important Requirements BEFORE Runners Can Participate in Summer Conditioning
- Runners must have a current GHS Physical Form on file; bring to Coach Self as soon as you have it (can also be handed in on your first day of summer conditioining). Click here to download/print the form.
- Runners must return a Summer Conditioning Registration Form, click here for a FILLABLE form that you can email to the Booster Club.
Fall XC Season
- First official practice begins 8/1/19 (practice is mandatory); in general our practices are from 2:30pm to 4/4:30pm Monday-Friday with meets on Saturdays. Most days we will practice at GHS and when we have enough rides (i.e. Parent Volunteers) we will practice at Tribble Mill park. On weeks where we do not have a meet on Saturday, the Varsity will have practice (a.k.a. Long Run). Poor academics will interefere with a runners ability to participate, please remember grades come first.
- Kick-off Meeting will be held 8/15/19 from 6:15pm to 8:15pm (location to be announced)
- Time Trials to be held 8/24/19 (time/location to be announced)
- The SAMPLE Meet Schedule that was discussed at the Info Meeting on May 9th was for Varsity only; we will publish the final schedule at the Kick-off Meeting on 8/15/19 and the website.
