Darts!
Missed you guys over moratorium! Hope you had a great 4th of July! I loved seeing your race results! I had a good time catching up on sleep this week!! Haha. And also caught up on some fall cross country planning. This season is going to be 
. This week I did my annual moratorium run/hike up Pfeifferhorn with alumni. You guys should all plan on coming the summer after you graduate. It's a party. Pfeifferhorn is a really intimidating mountain. You can't see it for most of the run, but once you can, it literally looks impossible to climb. But you just keep moving forward and as you take each step, you start to see the trail and how it all comes together. The trick is simply to keep moving forward. Kind of like life, right?!! Sometimes you can't see the end result, or what you want may seem absolutely impossible, but if you keep moving forward, you will get there! And the views will be amazing!

How in the world will we get to the top of this??
We did!
Quick Reminders:
- Send mileage!!! If you want to be invited to camp this is essential! I haven't gotten very many miles this week so far, send them in to be included in mileage prizes! This is what I have so far!
- Gear Sizes - If you are doing Cross Country in the fall and haven't yet, PLEASE fill this out.
- Blog - Working to Keep this updated. Check here for any past information I've sent out!
- Payment - Thank you! A majority of you have paid and I appreciate that! There are still 10+ kids showing up regularly who haven't paid, if you could take care of that, that would be amazing! Thank you! @davisrunningclub
- Coach Meetings - Let's keep these rolling
- Dart Games - Current Standings
- Parent/Athlete Challenge - I hope to be giving away 100s of these shirts! Let me know when you complete the challenge!
- Please start getting Register my Athlete Completed!
This week
This week will be a little different because all 4 coaches are gone the second half of the week. (Remember it was supposed to be a second week of moratorium). Camie and I will be at practice on Monday and Sweat will be at practice on Wednesday! We will have tons of mileage prizes to give away on Monday. On Wednesday, hopefully, you guys can watch the scavenger hunt videos. (Send to me so I can compile them for Sweat to show)! Wednesday will also be our first real workout. The captains will explain how it's done before you leave the school on Wednesday.
Parent Meeting
I would like to have a parent meeting to discuss both camp and the season! I know holding a meeting in the summer is hard because people will be out of town, but I will make sure everyone who can't be there gets the information they need! That meeting will be held on July 13th at 7:00PM. (I originally said 5:00, but we will need to change it to 7:00)!!
Des News
If anyone would like to run the Des News 10K, they offer us a pretty great discount for high schoolers. Use the promo code "DN_HS26" to keep the 10k Cost at $40 up until registration closes. You can also use the promo for $20 off the half marathon if you want to run longer. Please let me know if you'd like to run as a TEAM (they score three athletes as a team).
XC Tracker App
Mason's dad developed a really cool app for us to keep track of mileage, etc. We hoped we could connect it directly to Strava, but the request was sadly denied. If you would still like to use the app, it's very helpful for me! I can see all of your runs in one place and you can actually submit your weekly mileage report through the app. If you would like to join, here is the website and the team code: JFYGDE.
Varsity Day Camp with Riverton
I'm excited for this fun opportunity to collab with Riverton and hear from some speakers! I invited kids based on mile times in track, cross country times last year, and mileage this summer. If you're not on the list and think you should be, please reach out. If you can't make it, please let me know! I will be creating a groupme for this where I'll share information.

). The warm-ups are true to size (unlike last year's pants), and the only size missing as far as I'm aware is the boy's small (so probably size up). If you need to change sizes, fill out the form again. 
These will be a LOT of points in Dart Games (like you won't be able to win without them). They'll make you smarter. And they'll help you conquer the most important part of running-your mind!
