September 7: meet day!
LCA Invitational, Loganville Christian Academy
Runners must arrive at the school (by the tennis courts) by 5:30am! NO EXCEPTIONS!!!
The bus LEAVES at 5:45, and we need to load the bus together. If you are late, we WILL NOT wait for you!! :)
If your parents would like to support, we would love to have them. Please have them arrive at the park NO LATER than 30 minutes before your race..otherwise they may miss it!! We will not have seating for them...they should bring chairs. Per the organizer, entry is $10 per car, paid on GOFAN
Running schedule:
Varsity boys 8:00am
Varsity girls 8:30am
JV boys & girls 9:00am
Middle school boys 9:40 (yes we will stay to support Creekland!)
Middle school girls 10:00 (yes we will stay to support Creekland!)
We will stop on the way home for (fast food) lunch (yay!!!) so bring cash or card for that. You don't have to eat, but this is a team bonding thing that is important.
If your parents want to bring you home instead, they can...but please stay to support the later runners if you are able! We are a team in all things, and everyone runs better when they are being cheered on!
We will return to the school somewhere between 1:00-1:30 -- you can call when we get close.
Please make sure you eat a good dinner the night before and breakfast before you arrive. We will have bagels and fruit for you at the meet, but this needs to be the second meal of the day. DO NOT EAT EGGS OR DRINK MILK!!! These foods are almost guaranteed to end up on the side of the course!!
What to bring (please pack your bag the day before!!!):
Uniform and running shoes (wear this so you know you have them!!!!!)
Other clothes to wear over when you are not running. Once you stop sweating you will need them!
WATER BOTTLE -- I will have a jug to refill, but you need to bring a bottle.
Snack if you don't want the bagels we are bringing.
Spikes if you plan on wearing them.
A towel (in case it rains). We run meets in the rain if there is no lightning!!!
A charger for your phone if your phone dies quickly...otherwise you will be calling from a friend's phone when we are almost home.
Money for a shirt if you want to get one. For our new runners, races often have commemorative shirts available to sell with cash or credit.
Optional: Roller...this is a good thing to keep in your running bag! Rolling your muscles can make all the difference after a meet where you went all out. I will have one there too but if you want to have your own it is great to use at home too.
