Hello! Its been an exciting season that is coming to a close, please read all the information!
🏁League Finals Meet this Wednesday 10/8 @ JD Morgan Park
- Order is 6g, 6b, 7g, 7b, 8g, 8b
- Races start at 4:30 pm sharp! 6th grade should try to be there by 3:30 pm, 4 pm at the latest
- I will try to get the same spot by the playground and picnic tables we had, but as always look for orange!
- Each race will be fully completed before the next starts, so expect it to be double the length of our practice meets.
- Each runner needs to be sure they are running in the correct race or they will be disqualified, if you don't make it, there's nothing we can do.
- The Map should be the same as the JD Morgan practice meet, athletes should try to learn the course, walk it if you get there early!
- The top 10 runners in each grade and gender will receive medals, (8th girls etc.)

Video of how to wear the tag- and please don't hang out near the finish line with your shoe tag- it will mess up the timing system.
