Good morning TNHSXC family. This email contains the most recent correspondence from the Region meet manager. They have pushed the times back 10 minutes, which only affects our girls moving their start to 9:40 CST. Note the $5 per car fee and the course closures.
We will LEAVE TNHS at 7:00 EST. If anyone is not caravanning, be sure you are on site at least 90 minutes prior to the start. Boys need to be there by 7:30 CST, and girls need to be there by 8 - 8:10 CST. Do not mess with the added stress of arriving late!

We appreciate those that have submitted their XC 113 forms electronically. There is a link to this form on milesplit. Please make sure you bring them to the coaches meeting on Sat., if you are unable to submit them electronically. In addition, there is a link for the inhaler form on milesplit, if needed.
We've attached an updated map of the course that emphasizes the 5K course in green. The map also addresses parking for buses and spectators, tent city locations, and spectator restrictions.
Spectators will not be allowed on some parts of the course, this section of the course is to the right of the red line on attached map.
Athletes are able to warm-up around either tent city locations or their lane (coaches will draw for lanes at registration).

Location:
Phil Moore Park is located 3 mi.south of Greenwood High School and straddles US 231(Scottsville Rd). It is exit 22 off I-65. The 5K course is primarily a natural grass surface with some gravel in areas prone to washout (hill and underpass). Attached below is a map emphasizing the 5K race in green. The course is set-up and available for practice anytime. The map also addresses parking for buses and spectators, tent city locations, and spectator restrictions. Spectators will not be allowed on some parts of the course,the course to the right of the red line on the map is prohibited.
Parking:
There will be a $5 parking fee per car. There will be no charge for buses.
Buses will drop off runners and park on the south side of 231, which is the primary entrance to the park. All personal vehicles will need to turn to the north side of 231, directly opposite the main entrance sign. Car parking will take place in a large grass field and spectators will need to follow the path under the highway to get to Tent City and the start/finish lines. In the name of safety, please use the walkway under the highway. See map above for clarification.
The course continues to be available for practice this week and that includes Saturday morning before Class AA starts."
All of the paperwork is in, pasta eaten and sweet new team clothing distributed. Just one easy shake out, some strides and little visualization practice between now and the start line. Let's take care of our runners, feed them well, and get them plenty of rest tonight.
I love these kids, and I can't wait to see them crush it tomorrow. Erase any doubt and believe!
Matt
