This past week was a tough week with a full week of school and practice for the first time.  All sports and high schools are struggling with the adjustment.  Luckily we were still able to get in some quality runs.  We also got to race late Friday evening at the Saddleback Cup. The coaching staff was really happy with the athletes who ran.  Although the course was limited to 2miles we still managed to have some standout performances.  Our two standouts this week Logan Shaw and Christine Nam have been selected as the athletes of the week.  Logan set the 3200m school record in a XC race!!! WOW this kid is going to be awesome as the season progresses.  Christine had a solid race for 2miles as she also set a personal best!

Our first invitational race of the season will be Saturday at the Pat Hadley Invitational for our selected runners.  Although we are not in tip-top race shape; this early season race will give everyone some experience and some insight into their fitness level.  Looking forward to seeing our Timberwolf Families at the first invite races the next few weeks!

EXTREME HEAT ALERT.  WE ARE MOVING THIS WEEKS PRACTICE TO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.  THIS WILL BE A BIG SACRIFICE FOR ALL ATHLETES, PARENTS AND COACHES!!  PLEASE BE ON TIME AS WE WILL GET STARTED IMMEDIATELY TO AVOID THE HEAT AND ALLOW TIME FOR ATHLETES TO CLEAN UP FOR THE SCHOOL DAY.  ALL LOCKER ROOM FACILITIES WILL BE AVAILABLE AFTER MORNING PRACTICE TO SHOWER AND GET DRESSED FOR THE SCHOOL DAYS!

Have a great week!
