End of Season
After 5 months of hard dedicated effort our season has officially ended!
I'm filled with gratitude today for you and your efforts especially on the trip. We appreciated your flexibility as there were a few bumps a long the way and a lot of unknowns. The trip was a blast and hopefully you're able to rest and recover the rest of today. Thank you for your responsibility and making the trip one of the best I've been on!
Nike has opened up an online store for gear as the lines were insanely line on Friday. Here is the link.
Some of you are doing other sports so just keep doing what your coaches ask of you. Keep in mind to listen to your body and communicate this with them how you're doing.
Everyone else I invite you to take a full week off from intense activity. Let your muscles and minds regenerate. This is incredibly important with running and preventing burnout. After a week if you'd like to start running again do so very gradually and not with a specific weekly mileage to hit. Just run how you feel 2-3 days a week. You could also do some cross training swimming, basketball, elliptical, etc... after a week off.
We will start the distance team practice for indoor track on January 6th and be having official practice 3 days a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
If you have a specific training questions about what you should do, reach out to me or stop by before or after school as there will be no more official practices for this year.
We are in the works of getting our end of season awards banquet put together. This event is for anyone in the family who'd like to attend to celebrate our athletes and their season! December may be too soon and a little hectic so we will tentatively plan for a night in January. More information will be sent out about this as we get closer.
Please send me your photos for our end of season slideshow! Please only send me photos if you were the original creator of the picture so I don't have to go through duplicates. You can email me at gregory.shaw@canyonsdistrict.org or add them to our google photos!

Lastly, for those who won the chocolate milks in the raffle stop by after school tomorrow to pick it up!
Thank you again for a great trip!
