Reminders

All athletes need to be registered on the Aktivate website-- Blue Button Below-- Get your doctor's appointments made now for your sports physicals.  The physical papers are on the Activate website. Print off the papers and take them with you to the appointment.  Once all three papers are signed,  take a picture of them and upload them to your profile.   Athletes' profiles need to be 'ready for tryouts' by August 1.  The only thing left on your account should be to pay your $50 participation fee, which can be paid after August 1.

Shoes:

First, get a shoe that fits right now-- you will wear out the shoe before you grow into it.  Runners need a new pair of shoes every 4-6 months.  The older, more experienced high school athletes will most likely need another pair before the season is over.  Remember, paying for a good shoe now will save on injury and countless aches and pains later.

A good option is the St. George Running Center, they can help you find a good shoe to fit your foot type. They do give a discount to high school runners. 

 Hibbet in Cedar carries good running shoes, particularly the Brooks and HOKA brands.  You can go there and try on a few different models to find a good fit. 

The Running Warehouse website is a great place to get good deals, and they do have free returns.  Stay away from the Nike Frees or other shoes that give no cushion or support.  The Nike Pegasus is a good model if you really like Nikes.  

The Brooks website is having a great sale right now. They also have a shoe finder tab that will ask you a bunch of questions and then guide you to the right model.  

Notes:

Please invest in a pair of new running shoes now, and if you find a good deal, get two pairs to rotate through the season.  Only wear your running shoes to practice and to run in.  Wear other old pairs of shoes to mow the lawn and do other activities so you do not wear your shoes out so quickly.

Hydration is key! Hydrate throughout the day every day!

We understand summer is very busy with family, church, clubs, etc. We'd like to ask that you are at pre-season practice as much as possible so you are with the team and get in your workouts that are needed to help you become a better runner and avoid injury.  Starting August 11, attendance will be taken.

Just to remind you, everyone must ride the bus to the meet.  You can ride home with a parent once they sign you out.  It needs to be a parent to sign you out, and if there is an emergency, then someone else can sign you out, but you need prior permission from a school administrator to do so.
