Short Week, 2 Meets

Tomorrow we will be at West Jordan Veteran's Memorial Park (Just west of Redwood Road and south of 7800). Races start at 3:30.
Friday we will be at Murray Park (5100 S. State Street). Races start at 4:00.

Here we go!

I hope everyone had fun at the Grass Relays last Saturday. I have the times for those who haven't already stopped by to see them.
The Pre-Region meet yesterday was a mess. I don't know why we had to deal with other regions there. I will work to make sure that doesn't happen in the future. The girls times are legitimate, but the guys times are messed up. Some people were going the wrong way, bumping into the other region, and running longer than needed. We will talk about the meet today during practice.
This Saturday we will be at BYU. For those parents interested in attending, the meet will be held in the track area (just South of the football stadium). The first race will be the fresh/soph boys at 9:00AM. It will be followed by the girls, JV boys, JV girls, Varsity girls, university men's 4 mile race, and finally the Varsity boys. We will be back to the school about 1:30PM.

Tuesday and Change of Schedule

Okay, it seems like we will be better off meeting 2 times a week in the afternoon rather than 4 times. For those who cannot make it for the afternoon runs, I will post the workout here on the blog. Try to do it when the temperature is warm if you can (even if it is at 10:00 in the morning). This will help you to be prepared our afternoon races.
Today we did just under 6 miles.
Tomorrow we will meet at the Cottonwood Complex (4400 S. 1300 E.) at 7:00 AM. We will meet at the Southeast parking area right off of 1300 E.
