Dear Lady
Bees,
The 2013
Track and Field season is right around the corner, and it is time to start
thinking about the season. Indoor track
provides a great opportunity for you to prepare for the outdoor season as well
as challenge yourself at some meets (without having to battle the winter
elements).
Let’s BEE ready…BEE
fit….BEE the BEST!
We will
begin Winter/Indoor track practice on Wednesday, December 5, 2012.
Practices
will be Mondays & Wednesdays from Dec. 5th- Jan 31st. We will practice additional days beginning in
Feb.
Mondays & Wednesdays: 3:30-5:00 @ High School
* Distance Runners (check website for alternate
practice locations and some weekend group runs at the Towpath)
* There will be some additional practices on Tuesday
nights at the University
of Akron Check the
website/Google calendar for all activities!
The calendar is located on the top of the website….”Calendar of
Events”. There is a small fee for this
that athletes are responsible for and you must arrange your own transportation.
* Cross training at Brecksville Rec: You can use the pool for $2.00 available
times TBA. Spinning Classes 6:30 PM on
Tuesday/Thursdays.
Completed
physical forms must be on hand before any student is permitted to
participate.
NO PHYSICAL/MEDICAL
FORM = NO PRACTICE!
Practices
will be outside as much as possible so dress for the weather (hats, gloves,
pants, etc.) but if it is unsafe to be outside we WILL still have practice but
move indoors. Be prepared….we will run
in the cold and snow!
Athletes
are required to participate in practices and both meets. If for some reason you cannot attend a
practice or a meet, you must let Coach Gruskiewicz know in advance. List of indoor meets will be online by
December 20th.
FYI…. The
first day of OUTDOOR practice (Mon-Fri) will begin March 11th.
Please
call or email me if you have any questions. I am very excited about this season
and I hope that you are too!
