Good Monday TNHSXC family. We're off to a fantastic start this school year and are excited for the season to begin in earnest. This week is a busy one, so please read carefully and keep this email with the attachments and links in it so that you can access those resources.
Attached are the meet schedules. I have updated the HS schedule with start times. We will establish arrival times as a team prior to the race dates, but this should give you a better idea of what the next month looks like.
Tomorrow 8/19 - NCHS Hokum Karem - all HS runners need to attend. Race begins at 5:00. Athletes should be at NCHS warming up no later than 4:15. It is a two-person relay format, each runner does a 2.5k course two separate times, and our pairings are as follows:
Jarrett / Tyler
Timmy / Austin
Jake / Andrew
Isaac / Justin
Sadie / Allison
Samantha / Sierra
Maggie / Megan
Champayne / Nada
Hope / Edena
Probably missing a couple of folks, and some will change, but this is a start. I need to know if you or your runner is not attending! This is a low-key, no scores, minimalist event. Kids can wear whatever they want, TNHSXC gear if you got it, but otherwise it doesn't matter. 4:15 - NCHS Band field behind the soccer stadium, which is behind the school. You'll have to walk back past the greenhouses.
Wednesday, 8-20 - Popsicle Races #1 at TNHS - I started this series 5 years ago when I was at NCHS. We will have kids from all of the local districts and they are ton of fun. Sign-ups start at 5:30, 1k at 6:00, 2k at 6:20 and 3k at 6:40. Our HS runners need to stay after practice and help put these events on. Anyone grades k-8 are welcome to run. Representing TNHS MS will be - Awtin P., Zander J., Ethan V., Lane H. (maybe Sierra and Edena) and any other little brothers and sisters that you can think of. I'm surely expecting Andrew's little sister, Darien's little sister, Caroline Janes, maybe even the debut of Jackson Middleton or the return of Clay Dones?! These races are a blast, they bring running to the community and we will see 100+ kids racing their hearts out. Go topopsicleraces.blogspot.com
Lastly, your runners will be getting paper order forms for TNHSXC spiritwear. On the bottom of that for is a space for us to order uniforms. The reality is that uniforms are very hard to replace and many kids don't want to bring theirs back. These will be our uniform for all ages and the same for XC and Track. Once you have one, assuming you don't lose it, you won't have to buy another. Look for those forms later in the week.
Hope to see you all out in support Tuesday and Wednesday!
