Week of October 21st

Well, there's no run after school on Monday because...

Tuesday is the Valley Championships!

Here are some of the key details for Tuesday's race:

  1. We meet at school at 7:25am.  We'll load in the cars and head out by 7:30am.
  2. *Bring your race jersey and clothes to keep you warm and dry. *
  3. Bring water, drinks, snacks and a lunch.  Look at the race times and decide how to plan your food/water intake.  
  4. We are also at the park over the lunch hour so you should have a post-race lunch.
  5. Juniors start at 11:30am, and the Seniors start at 12:30pm.  Awards will be at 1:15pm.
  6. We can stop along the way home for some food if you are hungry, and we should be back in Revelstoke around 4:30pm.

*Important Note: The Provincials are on Saturday, November 2nd at Jericho Beach in Vancouver.  If you qualify at Valleys, I will need to know after the race if you want to go.  There will be extra costs (hotel, travel, food) and permission forms for this trip.
