Monday, October 19, 2020 - Practice #25

Both the Boys and Girls Meet versus Duxbury will be held tomorrow at 4:00PM.  The course has been moved from Duxbury High School to Duxbury Beach.  The course itself is a flat and fast out and back.  No turns other than a 180 at a cone 1.55 miles out. The course consists of dirt road and pavement.  There is approximately 100 yards of pavement. The Boys will run first at 4:00PM.  The Girls race will follow.  The buses leave the gym area at 2:30.  Unfortunately, no spectators will be allowed at the meet since Hanson is a "red zone" town.

As I mentioned previously, Duxbury is a competitive team.  They have consistently run well against Whitman-Hanson over the years and I would expect the same from them this year.  Don't get caught up in talk about injuries and the like.  Duxbury will be ready.  Our jobs, yours and mine, is to insure YOU are ready.  Prepare physically and mentally.  Four meets in, you know the drill.  

While it may sound incredible inasmuch as I've lived in this area all my life, I have never set foot on Duxbury Beach.  I am looking forward to doing so tomorrow. But far more important to me is how we fare as a team.  The weather and the venue will provide an opportunity for you to have a great day.  Your preparation will seal the deal.

Today ALL groups, Boys and Girls, will run short and easy followed by strides, core and stretch.  See you all at 2:30.
