First meet this weekend

As we are 64 days out from conference we are getting ready for our first meet this weekend at the Wichita State J.K. Gold Classic. Information on the meet can be found http://www.goshockers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?SPSID=61295&SPID=2840&DB_OEM_ID=7500&ATCLID=204782375. The Men will be running a 6k and the women will be running a 4k. I wanted to find a meet that had shorter distances to open up with to give us a chance to get our feet wet and race without having to dive in head first. This should be a good meet for us to do that. I am excited to see what both teams can do.



Training has been going well, we got some solid miles in this week and had a great Tempo run on Tuesday, we have also been in the weight room twice this week. For a lot of the athletes this is there first time in the weight room and I am excited to see the gains we get from spending time in there along with our core circuits. These two things alone should help with injury's and fixing imbalances. Overall I feel we are ready for our first test. This will also mark the first time in many years that the McPherson College Cross Country program has two full teams at a meet. Hope to see some of our fans out there as we get started on our 2009 XC Campaign.
