It’s back to work for Sue Northey’s secondary school aged middle distance group as fall practices commence on Tuesday, September 8 at Ron Wiebe Park (Clearbrook Park) from 4:00-5:45. New athletes are welcome to be on hand for the fall practices that will concentrate on cross country running and background conditioning for the middle distance track competitions.
New comers (both male and female) are welcome to come and give the cross country discipline a try. Athletes that are a minimum of 13 years of age and older are invited to be on hand for the first practice. Practice days will be Tuesday and Thursday at 4:00 p.m. and Saturday at 10:00 a.m.
Athletes, both returnees and prospective newcomers, are urged to do some background running commencing this coming week. The emphasis should be placed on runs beginning with 30 minutes and working up to 45 minutes completed at a steady pace and done four or five times per week.
