BRING WARM CLOTHES! Everyone is expected to wear long pants and long sleeves over their shorts and t-shirts during warm ups. Cold muscles will prevent you from performing your best and are the quickest way to injury. Warm clothes will be expected every day no matter how nice the weather is. Layers can be removed as we warm up.
WEAR APPROPRIATE SHOES. You will need running shoes/sneakers. Fashion sneakers do not count! They do not have good support and you may injure your feet if you train in them.
Team Uniform
The track team will be wearing BLUE Lexington track shirts with Yellow lettering (Diamond will wear Yellow shirts with blue lettering). T-shirts can be purchased at TriCon sports for $10.95. For those who ran Cross Country, T-shirts for Spring Track are the same.
Parent Volunteers at Meets
We will need parents and other adults who can help out with Home meets (5/1, 5/12, 5/29). Approximately 5-10 adults will be needed at each home meet. If your parents are interested in helping out have them email or call me with the following information:
