2. We are taking those who have attended practice regularly and completed the workouts in their entirety and wore their watch;)

4. We are NOT just taking the top fastest.
5. We are taking those who have completed 2 conference meets. This was mandatory.

Glory Days Grill Invitational Notes from Meet Director

A few notes on the meet from the meet director.
 
WHILE THIS IS A VERY SPECTATOR FRIENDLY COURSE, WE WILL BE ASKING ALL COACHES AND SPECTATORS TO STAY OUT OF THE AREA WHERE THE ATHLETES CROSS, AT JUST AFTER 1 ½ MILES GOING UP AND 2 ¼ GOING DOWN.  OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS WE HAVE HAD ISSUE WITH COACHES AND SPECTATORS NOT BACKING UP WHEN THE FASTER RUNNERS ARE COMING DOWN, IMPEDING THEIR PROGRESS.  THIS AREA WILL BE MARKED AND MARSHALED.***
 
**IF YOU DIRECT YOUR PARENTS TO THE MAIN MEET PAGE ON MILESTAT, I HAVE LOADED THE BOX ASSIGNMENTS, AND THE MEET PROGRAM** 
 
1.  Please be aware of the parking attendants.  All buses are required to drive all the way around the back by the stage, even if they are only dropping off athletes.  Make sure that all your coaches who are riding the buses are aware of this.  There will be parking attendants to make sure they get all the way around and into the park.  The back lot holds approximately 30 buses, and any overflow is to the grass area right by the back parking lot.  Buses will be able to back up to to the fence of the adjoining property to help them as they leave.
 
2.  Remind all drivers that there is a $5 parking charge as you come into the park.  Things will go much smoother if people have their money ready as they enter the park.  This will drastically speed up the traffic flow into the park.
 
3.  Driving Lanes - as you come into the Special Events Center, the road will widen to 3 lanes.  the two lanes to the right are for incoming traffic.  The middle lane, the left incoming lane, will allow spectators to park in the grass field to the left as they come in, and all cars in the middle lane will be directed into that lot, until the lot is full.  The right lane is MANDATORY FOR ALL BUSES SO THAT THEY MAY GET TO THE BACK LOT BY THE STAGE.  All cars will be directed to the lot at the top of the hill.  This lot does not have any impact on the course and will allow the cars to park quickly and safely.
 
4.  As spectators prepare to leave from the upper lot, the gate onto Compton Road, which is at the top of the entrance road, will be opened.  Parking attendants will direct cars out the gate.  Compton Road comes right back to Bull Run Post Office Road outside of the park, and will seriously diminish exiting traffic problems.  MAKE SURE YOUR PARENTS/SPECTATORS ARE PAYING ATTENTION TO THE RACES IN PROGRESS.  AS YOU TURN RIGHT TO EXIT THE PARK, BE AWARE THAT THERE MAY BE ATHLETES ON THE COURSE. 
 
5.  Commemorative tshirts will be sold throughout the meet
 
6.  Glory Days Grill will have their Glory Days Wheel in action.  Please stop by!  Glory Days Grill Marketing Director will be there for you to win prizes from the fine food selection at Glory Days Grill.
 
7.  Potomac River Running will have a retail shop open, and will have a variety of clothing and shoes available for purchase.  You can find them in the red tent on the hill as you enter the ampitheater.
 
8.  We will have plenty of concessions available all day long.  please stop by for your favorite food or beverage!
 
9.  Remind athletes that the top 15 will be given their medals in the finish area.  All athletes will be held to the side and given their medals by Jeff Newman, one of the owners of Glory Days Grill.  These will be announced as soon as the top 15 times have been processed. 
 
10.  All team awards will be given at the conclusion of the meet.  The awards ceremony will begin by 4:15.
 
11.  The morning races are spread out by 40 minutes/race.  The afternoon varsity races are spread by 30 minutes, beginning at 2:00.

Update on Uniform Order Link

Parents,

Please sign up your student athlete and not yourself.

Each student athlete needs to have their own account. 

All the information is to be the student's, except an emergency contact and a parent email.  

Please update the user account to be the student's email, not the parent. We need this information for future reference for our roster.

I'm seeing parents sign up and not the student. Please do not do this.

Also this is they only way we are accepting payment. We are not accepting cash or check. After you register your student athlete you will be promted to payment information. If not you can go to "store" on the event page and pay for uniform here.

Everyone needs to buy a uniform as these are new uniforms. The brand is Asics, not Nike. And they are blue singlets and red shorts.

Uniforms

Athletes and Parents,

This is a tough week for us regarding uniforms. We have 3 meets. On Wednesday the uniform rule is not strict.  If an athlete has an old uniform please share it with an athlete who does not have a uniform. Also if there is not enough current uniforms or old uniforms to go around an athlete can wear shorts and spirtwear t-shirt as a last resort, just make sure it says Patriot on it. Please bring to Tuesdays practice for the Wednesday meet.

This Saturday we have 2 meets at 2 different locations. Any athlete that is not running in either meet this Saturday please let another athlete who is running borrow your uniform. It would be GREATLY appreciated. They need a RED singlet top and blue shorts and everyone on the team needs to be matching.If any athlete who is not running Saturday please give to another athlete after the meet on Wednesday or Thursday at the latest. Your donation of your uniform means so much to the athlete running and us coaches.

In regards to the new uniforms they were ordered last week. We finally found a vendor who had small sizes available in both tops and bottoms. We will hopefully be recieving those soon but then they are off to be screen printed for our Patriot logo. It is a process and has been a nightmare! So I thank everyone who has been kind to donate uniforms and understanding and patient in the process.

Sunday Long Runs

Hello Athletes & Parents,

I wanted to let you all know Sunday Long Runs at Manassas Battlefield are optional but highly encouraged! We find it important to do a long run each week for various reasons. It builds endurance; increases blood flow; increases oxygen to your muscles; strengthens your muscles, tendons, and ligaments; etc. The more oxygen one can deliver to the working muscles the better one’s performance. These adaptations to one’s body help one in shorter races like a 5k (3.1 miles.) And the stronger your muscles, tendons, bones, and ligaments become the more one is capable to perform better workouts like interval training.

I have attached a map and information pamphlet of the Manassas Battlefield trails under team files.  These can be printed and the athlete can bring these with them to carry on their Sunday long runs. Student athletes can also bring their phones and carry them during their runs just in case of emergencies. We also encourage athletes carrying water during their runs. Running longer than an hour in one sitting requires replenishment like water or gatorade. They can carry water in various containers like a hand-held water bottle, hydration belt, or hydration backpack.

We have also been informed by Manassas Battlefield Rangers to NOT leave water, backpacks, etc. in the front or to the sides of the Henry Hill Visitor’s Center. They would like us to use a tree-covered area with benches in the outer area/back of the parking lot. We also need to be respectful when using the trails because it is hallow ground and should remember men fought, died, and are buried on the Battlefield. We need to honor their request or we will be asked to not run here.

On Sunday there are a couple of coaches who do run with the team but are not there to take attendance officially. They may take attendance for their own reference. The coaches really just want to run with the team because they enjoy it. The coaches will also leave on their own time because again they are not there for official practice. They have to work or have other engagements and are not required to wait until the last student arrives.

Remember Sunday Long Runs are optional but we encourage the team to run with other teammates so they don’t have to run alone. In addition they have a soft terrain to run on instead of hard concrete. Parents can also run with their child.

We start at 7:30 am and have been running anywhere between 10-15 miles. If an athlete has not worked up to this distance then they need to find another teammate or can run with their parent who can run the farthest distance they have gone with them. For example: If the farthest you ran is 6 miles then you need to increase to 7 miles. Go 1 mile farther each week. Do not bump from 7 miles to 10 miles. It’s too big of a jump. Needs to be gradual.

If you have any questions please let the coaches know.

Updates on Practices

Hello Athletes and Parents,

Please see TEAM FILES under the MORE Tab to review the Attendance Sheet from 9/4/17 thru 9/10/17. On 9/5/17 we started keeping a strict attendance. If any athlete is in disagreement with the sheet please email Coach Asia @ asia.connor@therunningstoreteam.com and vouch for your absence.

Key when reviewing the attendance sheet.

X= Did not arrive late or leave early to practice. Wore a watch entire practice.

Ex= EXCUSED: Informed Coach Asia ahead of time of absence and reason met qualifying absences.

UnEx=UNEXCUSED: No notice of absence. Arrived late to practice. Left early for practice. Did not wear a watch entire practice. Absence did not meet qualifying absences.

We are keeping a strict attendance because we want to instill responsiblity, accountability, discipline and commitment to the team, coaches, and individual. After 3 unexcused absences the athlete is dimissed from the team. NO EXCEPTIONS! Please see that some athletes currently are close to dismissal.

We are also strictly enforcing all athletes to wear a watch with a Stopwatch feature and Lap feature the entire practice. If we see an athlete without a watch the entire practice they will be asked to stop running and dismissed to go home.We will also be checking athletes watches after practice to make sure they saved and recorded their data. (So athletes study up on how to use your watch.) Us coaches find it important to utilize this tool because it allows us and the individual athlete to track their progress. We want to see where an athlete needs improvement or help in their running. 

Workout days have also been running a little past 4:30pm so if you work after practice please inform your supervisor if you can be at work at 5:30pm. Parents please continue to pick up your child between 4:30-5pm on workout days. Easy Run days are usually done before 4:30pm. So parents please arrive between 4-4:30pm. Thank you!

If anyone has any questions please email Coach Ian Connor and "CC Coach Asia Connor." Also remember to email Coach Asia regarding any future absence NOT  Coach Ian Connor because he is no the one keeping track.

 

Hope everyone is at an understanding. Remember this update is coming from all Coaches  and we all agree and believe in these terms. Thank you!

Update on Absences

*** If any parent or student athlete has informed Heah Coach Ian Connor or  Coach Asia Connor of a future absence prior to the absent update the student athlete will be given a free pass. Next week we will give student athletes who have jobs a free pass so they have time to adjust their working schedules with their supervisor. Starting Monday September 4, 2017 the attendance rule will be strictly enforced.

And all student athletes must wear a watch that has a stop watch feature to practice.  If they come with no watch they will not be practicing. We will take attendance and check for watches at the beginning of each practice.
