Schedule -- Monday, 5/2...

Note: One last meet to qualify. We'll run it on Saturday, at Valley Christian High School, located in Tempe/Chandler (just off the I-10).

Here's all I have on the schedule for this meet:


TRACK EVENTS (Boys followed by Girls) Finals only (no prelims)
9:45 AM 3200M Relay (4X8)
High Hurdles
100M Dash 
1600M Run (Dom, *Cullen, Keven)
400M Relay (4X1)
400M Dash
300M Hurdle
800M Run (Tate, Jazz)
200M Dash
3200M Run (Andrew, Zach, *Cullen, Cassie)
1600M Relay (4X4)
We expect to wrap up by 2:00 PM
*  Cullen runs one of these events... not both... up to him.


So, as usual, don't ask me what time a certain event is scheduled to go off, since I just don't know.

It'll be a long day.

More details for this meet can be found below (see "Saturday")

In anticipation for this event, as well as the state meet, we will dress out and practice in sweats every day. Cotton, normally would not be tolerated (personally), but for this exercise, it will be perfect.


Monday, May 2nd
400s... lots of them... in sets of 4 w/ 100 rest between intervals, and big rest between sets. How many total? 16? 12? 8? Up to you. However, I know what I think you should run...

Pick up at 5:30, if we're lucky.

Tuesday
I need to find a teacher (most likely Ms. Bopp, since she's having Drama Rehearsal at 5:15) to supervise for me, since I'm taking off for Tempe right after my 6th hour class to attend a retirement ceremony for my favorite history professor that I had at ASU, and whom I've kept in contact with since graduating in '79 (that's 1979!)

Here's what you'll do at practice...
Green Mtn.
Back on the track for in and out 30's (that's where you run hard between the triangles, and jog/walk between). We did this workout once before in the winter.
Core work
Pick-up at 5:15

Wednesday
Recovery -- No formal practice.

Thursday
Track workout
200, 300, 400, 500... 95% pace.
Pick-up at 5:00

Friday
Recovery

Saturday -- last regular season meet
Leave NPA at 6:45 (Reporting to school at 6:30)
