A lot of great stuff this past week: School started, so that was awesome!
At the Cedar All-Comers on Tuesday, the team ran well and got the racing season off to a good start. Many of our Youngsters traveled up and saw great races as a result of hard summer training. Scottie Bushar won the race overall and we placed many boys and girls in the top 10. The HS girls race was won by our very own Josie Bushar! Our Varsity pack slipped off a bit and we got beat narrowly by a very good DH team 28-35. But we'll continue pushing forward and see great things happen! Especially considering our #2 runner was Freshman Jessica Hill; great job Jess. We also saw strong races from Brynnli Borrowman and Carli Kimzey. The boys were up on DH for about 2 miles, but slipped off a bit in the final mile and ended up getting beat by about 10 points (28-38 ?). Mitch Price led the team with a great run in the front pack (finishing 3rd) along with Dallen Gillespie.
On Friday and Saturday, the top 8 guys and 9 girls headed up to Pine Valley for our Renegade Camp. We had some great discussions, played games, and ran up the mountain. It was awesome! Thanks to Coach Robs for the use of the cabin and putting up with everyone.
Here's the important info for the upcoming week:
- Get your Week 10 Minutes in.
- Usual reminder about registration: Almost everyone got it done! But those that haven't or are new to the team, you need to register at registermyathlete.com as well as get your physical done and turned in to the office and pay your participation fee to the Finance Office and give Kara (secretary in the main office) your receipt.
- Workouts are posted to the side - check them out, especially your workout times for Wednesday afternoon (we will meet together Wed. afternoon and then carpool over to BHNP for the workout). Please remember that Level 2 and 3's are meeting at 5:30a on Monday for their long run. It will be tough to get up, but you'll be happy you did when it is near 110 Monday afternoon.
- Monday afternoon all team members will meet for an info meeting at 3:00p in Coach Holt's room (304) - hopefully we can move the meeting to the lecture hall.
- Race on Friday - Desert Relays - PV vs. DH at Bloomington Hills North Park at 6:00p. There will be no bus; athletes need to arrive at 5:15 to get race assignments and warm-up. Youngsters are invited to run this race (they will race at the same time as the HS races).
- Run-a-thon will be Friday after the race (app. 8:00p) at PVHS. Specific running times will be sent home on Monday.
- We will be getting Car Wash tickets this week, so look for those soon.
