The Eagle Running Club will begin summer training on Tuesday June 2.
The Eagle Running Club is open to all members of the Ashland Community with an interest in running. We will conduct weekly group runs and will post daily workouts to http://eaglerunning.blogspot.com/
This is a great opportunity for all athletes to prepare themselves for the 2010-2011 sports season, particularly Cross Country athletes. But all athletes are welcome.
Members of the Eagle Running Club will have the opportunity to earn 500, 300 and 100 mile shirts. The time frame for keeping track of mileage for the shirts is Memorial Day to Monday, September 6th. This is 14 weeks. In order to receive a 500 mile shirt, one would need to average 36 miles. In order to receive a 300 mile shirt, one would have to average 21 miles a week. In order to receive a 100 mile shirt you must average 7.5 miles a week.
Please keep in mind that you must EXCEED the mileage goal in order to get a shirt. For example, if a runner accumulates 340 miles then they get a 300 mile shirt. Also, if you have to average more than 5 miles more than the mileage recommended the last four weeks, you must settle for a lower mileage shirt. I don’t want anyone getting hurt!
It will be up to the individual athletes to email me their mileage totals for the week. In order to qualify for a shirt you and your parents must email your weekly mileage to me for recording purposes. You must do this by Sunday night each week. My email address is cdrury02@yahoo.com
Parents, teachers, coaches and other members of the community are more than welcome to be part of the Eagle Running Club. I will keep track of your mileage as well and give you an opportunity to win a 100, 300 or 500 mile club shirt.
