And we're off!


RHS XC Mob,

Summer Captain Runs start on Monday June 27th at Cowen Park (Brooklyn Avenue NE, between NE 62nd Street and NE Ravenna Blvd.) at 8:00 AM, typically finishing at approximately 10:00 AM. The boys will stretch before and after the run and begin core conditioning work, with sessions being led by 2016 RHSXC Captains Jack B., Silas M., and Ross B.

For those of you new to the squad, here are a few tips:

1. Sort your shoe situation this week and make sure that you have a set of well fitting trainers on your feet on Monday. 
2. Show up on time and introduce yourself. Our culture is one of shared endeavor, and while everyone is a little nervous at the start of the year, the quicker we get to know each other the quicker we gel. Don’t be shy!
3. Be an evangelist. Encourage other potential runners to join us. If you’ve been talking about running this fall and you have a friend who’s interested but not committed, encourage him to show up and give it a go.
4. Bring a water bottle and post-run clothing.
5. I’ll post details for the balance of the week and subsequent weeks as they become available. Typically the weekly plan is finalized on Saturday and posted to FB, the Blog, and distributed via email once I have it. 

I’ll be at the practice to answer questions from kids and parents on Monday, but please send me email at frfulton@mac.com or give a call at 206-227-5229 if you need something before then.

Finally, if you receive an email from the mailing list and want to discontinue your subscription, just reply to me with an UNSUBSCRIBE in the subject line and I’ll remove your address from future mailings.

Let’s have a great year!
