Embedded Files
Fall championships are earned through summer training - and summer training is about building a strong endurance base. This year we are starting a program to record - and reward - summer training.
Log your daily training miles in this spreadsheet. Summit Distance Project members who run 300 miles during the summer (1 June - 7 August) will earn the SDP Aerobic Monster 300-Mile club t-shirts.
Miles run on your own when vacationing and unable to attend SDP practices DO count. Honor System!
While it's called the 300-Mile Club, I want it to be an encouraging challenge but not lead to running excessive miles for our younger runners. So the mileage targets are stepped as below. Remember, also, that 300 miles at 9000+ feet, a lot of those miles possibly on trails with significant elevation gains and losses, is different than 300 miles on flat farm roads like in my home town of Olivia, Minnesota. So while some schools have 500-mile clubs, 300 miles run in Summit, in just 10 weeks (30 miles a week) is very worth of being an Aerobic Monster.
