Winter Conditioning Clarifications
If you have been training with us up until the Nike meet, give yourself a break! You will need to take at least 2 weeks off of running (completely!) before starting winter conditioning. You may pay 1/2 price for the first winter conditioning session to reflect this.
If you haven't run since the end of the season and you are not participating in a winter sport, please sign up for both sessions! This is essential to improve fitness before the start of track. Consistent training is the key to improvement in distance running. It will really hurt if you hop in on day one of track or summer conditioning without running with us for the rest of the year. Additionally, your improvements in the sport will be minimal at best if you are not consistently running! If cost is a concern, please get in touch with Coach Cook or Coach Baker.
All our top athletes know off-season training is essential and participate in all opportunities offered. If you hope to make varsity in XC next year or attain high goals, you NEED to put in the work! (Plus, track is FUN!)
