If you're reading this then you know practice starts at 8:00 AM tomorrow (Thursday.) I am excited about the upcoming season and hope you are as well. We have some changes in store. Specifically changes in the coaching staff, changes in the number of running "groups" we will create. changes in coaching assignments to insure each coach will work with each group on an alternating basis, changes in your pre-race routine, and other changes which you will observe in the days and weeks to come.
Some things however will not change. You are expected to be at practice each day unless you have a legitimate reason for not being there. Absence from school for example. If you are in school but unable to practice you must text me at 781-367-8487 to inform me of your inability to attend and the reason for your absence. My insistence on this is in order for me to address questions and/or concerns of parents and administration regarding your whereabouts during those hours when I am charged with the responsibility for knowing where you are. My primary focus, as I've said thousands of times, is always your safety! But keep in mind the Whitman Hanson Athletic Handbook, in its section dealing with COMMITMENT, is very specific as to what constitutes an excused (or unexcused) absence. Please understand the rules are there for ALL of us, myself included, to follow.
OK then . . . let's get started. Something else you can plan on each day is knowing what you'll be doing at practice. . . tomorrow's workout/weather:
Warmup (all)
Time Trial - 2 Miles (all)
Group Assignments - Easy running of various times/distances or conditioning
Core Training (all)
Stretching (all)
Weather 68-73, sunny, low humidity
Be there or be square. I guess that really dates me!
