Team,
We will be meeting at the mouth of Provo canyon at 7:45 am sharp. I will break you into 3 groups.
1. Sundance water stop
2. Double tunnel water stop
3. Vivian park water stop
We had 50 sign up to help, but will need more than that. This year there will be over 3000 runners..so every person will help. Bring your parents, your friends, siblings..anyone that would like to help. Its alot of fun!
Also remember to dress warm, it can get cool up the canyon in the morning.
The race starts at 9 am, and because we only have the first 3 stops, should be done by 11..
Thanks everyone for you're help and support of the OREM cross country team.
Coach Andy

State Results / Halloween half marathon water stops
Hey Team, I will post more when I can, but know what although we did not finish up where we thought we would. I am still very proud of each of you and the way you have worked and taken care of yourselves to ensure the best possible out come.
Boys finished 3rd place with Chance and Tanner finishing as 1st team all state.
Girls finished 6th place summer finishing 3rd (all state) and Candace Finishing 11th.
Varsity team, I have posted workout for the next 8 days. I do expect you to follow the plan while Camie and I are gone.
Also, look for information on the Halloween half marathon to be posted towards the end of next week. Plan on meeting early and taking care of the first 3 water stops. We had nearly 50 people sign up but I would like to get more. So if you have anyone that is willing to come and help, please let me know.
Thanks,
Andy

Region 8 Results
Team, the Region 8 Championships were a great success for Orem High. We achieved our first primary goal this year of qualifying both our Girls and our Boys team for State.
The girls team finished 3 points behind Timpanogos for 4th. and the boys team finished 20 points behind MVHS to take 2nd. I was very proud of our overall team effort. Especially with the caliber and talent we have from all of the region 8 teams. Region 8 represents the majority of the best teams and individual runners in the state.
Here are the results for you to review:
Results:
Individually Summer Harper (in one of the most exciting races I have seen in some time) won the Girls Varsity race and is the 2011 Region Champion.
Chance Werner also ran a very good race to be narrowly beat out by Jake from Timpanogos.
Every Varsity athlete, and the vast majority of our JV athletes ran PR's on this course crushing our pre region performances.
It was so impressive that our Girls Varsity team team (top 5) beat our Varsity Girls top 5 from pre-region by 10:43 combined time. Thats over 2 minutes per runner faster then pre region. Also, we had all five girls under 19:45 with a top 5 gap of 2:20. Both of these are season bests and would beat the last few years. Really proud of the Team effort.
For the boys, they beat pre-region top 5 total time by 5:50.00. That is 1:10 faster per runner. Even with Chance running a fantastic race, we only had a top 5 gap of 46.3 seconds. 4 runners under 16:00, and all 7 under 16:33.
I will discuss our state Varsity teams at practice this week. With so many great runners this is very difficult for me. However, we are only allowed 7 registered athletes.
I am grateful to each of you for the time and effort you put into this team. As a team, we always will stand stronger then we would as an individual.
Take Pride in your dedication, your work ethic, and for your heart! But most importantly, take pride because you are an OREM HIGH TIGER!!
thanks,
Andy
