Indoor Update - 12/23

Darts -
I hope that you are all enjoying your break so far. It is a little tricky to stay active and to fit workouts in with everything going on, but I hope you will do your best to fit in some type of exercise throughout these 2 weeks. We had a very solid group prior to the break, and I want to see you continue to move forward together after the break. If any of you weren't able to start with us in December, the Monday we come back to school is also a great time to get going. Remember that all the work we do in indoor track is to benefit us as we prepare to compete in outdoor track.

We will be meeting at the school on Monday (December 29) and Tuesday (December 30) at 9:00am for some workouts. You will be able to sprint, hurdle, and throw indoors, and the weight room will be open. Distance runners should still plan on working out outside (dress warm). If you are in town, you should come to the workouts.

Hurdle Clinic - Friday, January 2: We will meet at the school at 3:00pm and go up to Morgan to their indoor facility. The clinic will go from 3:30-6:30 and we will stop for dinner on the way home. Bring $10 for dinner; the clinic is free. We will be working with our hurdle coaches and with Coach Jamie West. It is always a fun clinic and a great opportunity to get to know the other hurdlers. If you are brand new to hurdling, or have never hurdled before, but would like to try, this clinic is definitely a great opportunity for you.

Utah State Indoor Invitational - Saturday, January 10th - will be our first indoor track meet. We will meet at the school early and take up a bus or caravan up to Logan. I will get you more details about time, etc. This first meet is just a chance to get some starting marks. No one is ever completely ready for the first meet, so don't be afraid. All of you should plan on participating :)

Indoor Fee - If you did not get a chance to pay the $25 fee for indoor before the break, please do so the first week we are back in school. Thanks!!!
