This club sport is YOUR opportunity to expand your experience base and to try out new things. You are welcome to come to run for fitness, to challenge yourself, and/or to compete. We will have 6 opportunites for competition. Our team takes a bus to each competition, with the first one being on September 8, at the Cedar Rapids Invitational in Knollridge Park in CR.

Some kids start out running 400 yards, and by the end of the season can run 2 to 3 miles or more. Some kids start out running many more miles than that at a time. You are working to better YOURSELF, whatever you can do TODAY, will help what you do TOMORROW. This is also your time to forget the trials of classes, homework, and other demands involved with growing up. Do this for YOURSELF and feel your body grow stronger and your mind get tougher as you discover what you can do! BEST WISHES FOR A TERRIFIC SEASON....
Sincerely,
A fan who admires all those who try
