Biffer Game!
8/29/13 Today the high school team came over and we played the Biffer Game! the high schoolers split up into 11 different stations that were spread around the middle school campus. The middle school students ran from station to station completing a combination of form drills, stretches, and strength training exercises. They had to run fast though because lurking around the corner were the dreaded Biffers! If you got biffed you had to wait until a medic came by and healed you. Everybody had a great time, and it was a great way to celebrate the start of our season on the eve of the middle school's first meet. Natalie probably put it best when she said, "That was the funnest practice EVER!"
Practice makes perfect
Well, we just finished our last day of practices in the morning. That's right sports fans, no more Coach Stubbs singing about hot air balloons as we run our warm up laps; he'll have to get some new material.
The coaches have been very impressed by how hard the athletes have been working and are looking forward to a great season. We all have a fun practice with the high school team this Thursday. Stay-tuned for pictures and a recap of what is sure to be an awesome time! This practice is on the eve of our first meet, the Saucony Sugar XC Scramble which is taking place in Shelley.
A friendly reminder to runners that practice now starts at 3:15 sharp! So after you finish 8th hour, get changed quickly and make a b-line to the cafeteria to get ready for practice.
