Summer Mileage Goal

Team,

we have talked about this the last couple practices. I have created a link to the tracking form for each of you to download and print out. This will help you to keep track of your mileage for the summer.

here's how the program will work:

A. The "GOAL": Boys 300 Miles, Girls 250 Miles
B. The "Breakdown": Boys 33.33 Miles Per week(5.5 per day), Girls 27.77 Miles Per Week (4.61 Per Day)
C. Bonus Mileage: Races count as 2x... So if you race a 5K, you would earn 6.2 miles
D. The "Reward": Each person that achieves the goal will receive a summer Mileage shirt... more details to come on that later in the summer.

Please work hard to hit your goal. I believe that each of you can do this. Especially if you are coming to practice and getting in the evening runs when scheduled.

Please let me know if you have any questions,

thanks,

Andy
