Winter Running Notes and Guidelines

The Off-Season is when GOOD teams become GREAT teams…what will we be?

A training group will meet at Memorial H.S. (in art hallway) at 3:45pm every T,W,R,F 

o This is NOT required and is open to anybody
o On days there is not running, there will be lifting or cross training going on

It is important to take care of one’s legs…we must prevent injury
o Run on soft surfaces whenever possible (grass, gravel, woodchips, etc)
o Make sure you have new shoes that are not worn down
o STRETCH frequently and ice when needed
o The healthier you can keep your body the more you can do in training

Take proper precautions when exercising outside during cold weather
o Be careful of slippery conditions and wear clothes that make you easily visible
o When running on a cold windy day, run into the wind first and return with the wind at your back
o Wear plenty of warm clothes in layers, you can take layers off if you get too warm
