4/18: Youth Track Over Break

Track parents and guardians-

We are off over April break so that means that there are no meets this Saturday or next and no practice next week--this is also set out on the longmeadowtrack.org season calndar.

We do have a couple of fun things to do if your kids have the time. The first is the Shuttle Run Challenge--there is a page dedicated to this on longmbeadowtrack.org. There is a video on the page that shows you what to do, and there are standards for each age, boy and girl, from the Presidential Fitness test, which was a thing back in the day. This workout comes from our Spring 2020 virtual track program that we developed at the height of the Covid lockdown. If your child reaches the standard (you can try multiple times), email me, and I will post a list of all the kids who achieve the standard on the home page of the website.

The second is an April 27 ultimate frisbee clinic that Parks and Rec has asked me to tell you about.See the attached flyer for details. Ultmate frisbee is fun, and it's a great workout. I like to incorporate it into our fall XC practices.

Have fun over break!

Coach Alex
