2024 Fall Distance Running
About the program:
Our mission is to introduce young people to the joy of distance running. Each athlete’s training will be designed for their specific goals and fitness level. We will practice mechanics and learn supplemental strength and flexibility drills. Finally, we will learn how to train and race as a team.
Important Dates and Practice Information:
Our first practice will be Monday, October 7. Our program will culminate with the Davis Turkey Trot on Saturday, November 23.
Practices will be three times per week on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, from 4:30-5:30pm.
Location: To be determined.
Athlete age:
This program is open to first graders through 8th graders. Jr. High runners should finish their school cross country programs before joining us. We will have a prorated price for Jr. High runners.
Cost:
The registration cost per athlete is $300.00. This price includes USATF membership, a DCTFC t-shirt, and registration for the Davis Turkey Trot.
Other potential costs:
Uniforms: These are optional and will be sold separately. These are the same uniforms we used for the competitive spring track and field program.
Running shoes: All athletes should have a quality pair of running shoes.
Running watch: All athletes should have a watch with a stopwatch function. These do not need to be fancy.
