Sprague Cross Country

Cross Country events for the week of September 6 through 9


Monday: Holiday. Hopefully everyone was able to get at least one long easy run over the weekend.


Tuesday: Practice at 2:45 FOR EVERYONE AT SPRAGUE. Repeat 2,000’s on the grass fields at Sprague. Please try to remember to bring a jar of sauce, a bag of pasta or a loaf of Italian bread to practice. We will finalize entries to the Cascade meet. Also I will ask who needs a ride to the meet on Thursday.


Wednesday: Long easy run. Carbo party at the home of the Atkinson family. Directions will be handed out at practice. Everyone is encouraged to attend. (Possibly concussion survey before practice.)


Thursday: Meet at Cascade H.S. The first race starts at 4:00. I will send out a specific message about the meet. Runners will arrange for their own transportation or they will travel with me in a minibus.


Friday: Run to Judson. 30 minutes continuous running. Run back. (Possibly concussion survey before practice.)


Race opportunities:

Saturday: Sublimity Harvest Festival Road Run and Fun Walk... (3k, 5k, 1k) Sublimity, OR (My favorite race of the year)


Sunday: Run to Remember 5K... Riverfront Park, Salem, OR


Note: We will be “training through the meets” in the early part of the season. Toward the end we will have a bye week and time to rest up for district.
