Winona Winhawk Cross Country


Summer Running Information

Winona Area Running Camp

This running camp is a great introduction to running.  It is cheap, close, and short, yet it features some of the best running coaches in the area and provides great information.  There is a session for 4th-8th graders and a session for 9th-12th graders. 

MIDDLE and HIGH SCHOOL Running Camp - Grades 4-12 - June 17th-20th

Join in our 18th annual cross-country program led by area coaches and athletes. This four-day camp is perfect for novice and seasoned runners alike. Our coaches will lead daily runs (grouped by ability level) and will also focus on physical and mental aspects of running, goal setting, form evaluation, guest speakers, fun & games.

Summer Training

Our summer training kicks off this year starting on June 21st members of the team will be getting together with coaches on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at the high school at 8:00 AM to run until the season starts.  New runners or people wanting to give it a try are always welcome and encouraged to attend these events.  Runners have historically met together on their own on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends to run in the summer as well.  For a copy of the full summer training program contact one of the coaches.


Fall PAC

The fall Parent/Athlete/Coach meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday, July 31st, at Winona Senior High School.  The general meeting for all sports will begin at 6:00 with the sport specific meetings following at 7:00.

Pasta Dinner Information

It has been a wonderful tradition in the program that parents have hosted pasta dinners on the evenings before races.  Recently parents have often hosted both the boys and girls teams, but it could be broken up by gender.  Also sometimes parents have grouped together to host a dinner with another family or two. If there are any questions or difficulties in signing up, you can just send me a message, and I can take care of it.  I have found that it doesn't work as well with mobile devices as it does with an actual computer.  Here is the link: Pasta Dinner Schedule


Email List

An email was sent out on Tuesday, August 8th, with some pre-season information. The idea is that it will be used for information sharing throughout the season. If you did not receive it and would like to get on the list, you can send an email to jed.reisetter@winona.k12.mn.us to be put on the list.
