Week of November 16-23

 Hi Everyone!

Sorry for the late posting. Busy weekend.  

Saturday was our first "Big Meet" and our Bulldogs ran great on a wet, muddy course!  Click HERE for full results.






 The Blue Hen Conference meet will be run in a similar fashion but will have half the number of runners.  I am helping with meet management, so I may need some parent volunteers to help as Marshalls on the course.  I will let you know as we get closer.  Just like Saturday, there are no spectators allowed inside the track area.  There are loads of other places to watch the kids.  And since there will be half the number of runners, we won't have the same crowds as Saturday so it will be easy to socially distance from others.

We have less than three weeks to go!  Keep working hard and remember our Covid protocols so we can all stay healthy in the upcoming weeks.  You need to make sure you are getting enough sleep.  Put those phones away at night and shoot for 8 hours of sleep.  Hydrate.  Drink water throughout the day.  Not just at practice.  And finally, make sure you are eating enough to keep you fueled throughout the day.  

See below for this week's schedule.  Note the time change!  

Monday 11/16:  Bellevue 3:00-4:30

Tuesday 11/17Meet with Wilmington Christian/Odessa.  At  Bellevue.   Start time is approximately 3:30. There is another race scheduled for the same time.  It will be similar to last week.  Whatever teams arrive first will go first.  Latest start time would be 3:45.  Please arrive at the park by 2:30.  We will meet in pavilion near start.
