Hi everyone!
XC preseason is right around the corner! We start two weeks from TODAY: Monday August 11th!
If you haven't been running consistently, START TODAY! Follow Weeks one and two of the summer training plan.
Everyone should start the season with a new pair of running shoes. We recommend the Delaware Running Company. They have the best selection around and are staffed by knowledgeable runners. They also offer discounts to high school runners. Be sure to tell them you run XC for BHS. Click HERE for store location and hours. It's recommended that shoes be replaced every 300 miles. So if you're still running in last season's shoes, it's time for a new pair!
Finally, you MUST turn in your DIAA physical to the nurse before 8/11. You cannot practice until the paperwork is turned in, so please, please, please take care of this ASAP.
Monday through Friday 8/11-8/15: BELLEVUE State Park 8AM-9:45 AM
We meet by the picnic tables next to the track (near the bathrooms)
Saturday 8/16: Brandywine Creek State Park 8AM-9:45AM
Use the main entrance off of Adams Dam Road. If using GPS, the address is 41 Adams Dam Road. Drop off/pick up at the Nature Center at very top of road.
All runners should bring a 32 ounce water bottle filled with water EVERY DAY and a towel or a yoga mat for stretching.
Please reach out if you have any questions!
