Labor Day Long Run:
For those in town, we will meet at 8 am at Goodson Rec Center for our long run. If you're out of town please get your long run in on your own. This is a recovery week so drop your long run by either a mile or half a mile (pace shouldn't slow),
Wash Park Invite:
WHAT! A! MEET! Having everyone bump down to two-miles provided us with a fast race to work on our speed and work on moving up and racing competitively. It also helps that HRHS crushed it!
Ranch Girls took 2nd and had three top 10 finishes
- Huge congrats to Amelia Orton, 1st place overall!
- Quinn Hennigar took 6th overall
- Courtney Rowe took 8th overall
Ranch boys took 1st overall and were 2 points away from a perfect score! The boys put 6 in the top 10
- Huge congrats to Sam Hilsden, 1st place overall!
- Matt Lobojko took second, literally less than a step behind Sam
- Scott Mortimer took 3rd overall
- Owen Flack took 5th overall
- Zach Salcido took 7th overall
- Charlie Wells took 9th overall

Parking Info: Arrive early and park in the neighborhoods. Parking is really hard to come by so plan ahead and try and carpool.
Varsity needs to be there by 7:45, everyone else needs to be there by 8:45. Athletes are expected to stay the whole time, regardless of what race they are in. A team-first attitude needs to be evident on meet days with HRHS falcons lining the course and cheering for each other!
Team Dinner:
This week's team dinner is hosted by the Harffs. Info can be found here
Photos:
Thank you to the Cermak's for back to back weeks of great photos! Here is where you can find the photos from meet day and upload photos that you have taken as well.
Apparel:
Falcon Project shirts are ordered, I'll include in my weekly email when they get in. We also have an online store for those that want more gear!
Nike Cross Regionals Meet:
Each year Nike hosts a varsity invite regional meet in Casa Grande, AZ on November 23rd. I have been asked my multiple athletes if we as a team could attend this meet. I want to gage interests before fully committing, but want to give those that want to go and race an opportunity. Meet entry, food, flights, and hotels would run about $500-$600 per athlete. Please email Coach Douglass directly if you would attend or would want more information.
