Elk Rapids (our season wrap up) |
Our season officially begins the first day of school. But as you can see we have a meet scheduled the first Saturday we are back. So if you have not begun some form of running schedule you should begin one. Therefore I would like to invite you to some pre-season practices. I understand not everyone is able to make these pre-season dates so make sure you run on your own-invite a friend!
Things to remember when training.
- Drink plenty of water before and during
- Warm up and stretch
- Build up to the amount of time or distance running
- Add variety to the run-change up your route and speed
- Mornings or early evenings are the better times to run
Middle School Practices
We will meet by the tennis courts on River St. in town for pre-season practice from 7:30-8:15 on Aug. 23,28, and 31. We will have some fun runs and discuss how to put an individual running program together.
On Sept. 5th we will meet at the tennis courts at 3:00 and on Sept. 6th we have a half day of school so practice will be immediately after school. I hope to see you for pre-season and bring a friend for the fun!! If you need to contact me you may email me at rroman@elkrapids.k12.mi.us or call 933-5293
Yours in running
Coach
