 I hope everyone had a chance to rest up this weekend and prepared to enter final phase of our season over the coming 4 weeks.  Coach Jeremy will be preparing workouts that will help our athletes be ready to achieve their best performances next weekend at Mt Sac and the following week at the League Finals. 

If you do not pre-register the athletes for Mt Sac on Monday or Tuesday we will assume they will not be competing on Sunday. 

Just a reminder that this Tuesday we will have running clinic from special guest Kirk Nelson, a professional Triathlete and winner of Saturdays Magic Mountain Man Inaugural Half Ironman Triathlon.

Also, a note to families with athletes that have been place in the top 10 in their age group races.  There is post season opportunities to be part of a national team made up of athletes from our conference.  Please see me for more information.
