Inclement Weather Policy
Posted on: Friday, August 29, 2008We race as we train! So...we must train as we race. Training in foul weather is important training. We have meets in rain and snow.
Bring a towel after the run. Stuff you shoes with newspapers afterwards when you get home.
A good rule of thumb is, if schools were not canceled due to weather, we will have practice. Yes, we can run in the rain and snow! If there is extreme foul weather forecasted and practice is schedule to be on the farm, we may move it to the school and adjust accordingly.
Rules for lightening do apply at all times! We may not practice outside for 30 minutes after hearing thunder or seeing lightning. We will be always safe.
