Saturday Practice Moved to KHS

We will hold our practice at KHS this morning. Please come to the East Fitness Center at 7am. We will be done at 8:30, so please have your rides planned accordingly.

We have our team photos on Monday at 4:30. Papers for the photo packages were sent home with runners on Friday. You can order packages online after the photo is taken on Monday, if you did not get a form. Forms will also be available on Monday when we take the pic.

Team Building: Day 2

This busy Saturday, the team started with a fast paced 5K workout on the course that we would later help Mark Eddington (KXC Alum) direct. We made it to the Boy Scout Troop 7 All You Can Eat Pancake Breakfast, and got our money's worth. Finally, we finished the day at Kuiper's Farm, volunteering to help at a Cystic Fibrosis Foundation event that welcomed bike riders who finished 30 and 60 mile treks.

Team Building: Round 1

The team started the day with a max 8 miles of hills at Elburn Woods, followed by breakfast. We split up teams for volleyball, with one team finishing undefeated. Later, the team broke into groups where our upperclassmen and younger runners had the chance to talk about school, racing, leadership, and what will make this team successful this season. We kicked off the last block of our morning with a kickball game. Fielding the ball with popcicles is a challenge!
