Dual Meet #2: at Bedford - Tuesday 9/23/14

Meet Site: Bedford High School

bus time: 2:30

First race 4:00 PM unless you hear different from me

Girls will be followed by boys; one race for each gender

Meet Information:

• Weather forecast: temperatures in the high 60s at race time, with light breezes from the west. Quite similar to last week's home meet. You'll want to wear more than just your uniform while warming up and cooling down. The temperature will start to drop by the time the meet's wrapping up. It's worth a reminder: bring clothes to wear at the meet besides your uniform.
• Once again you'll be required to wear your DCL bib number. After the race, don't forget to return it to me and I'll hold on to it until next week's meet.
• The Bedford coach says the tour will take no more than 30 minutes. 
• A map of Bedford's course can be seen here. It's quite flat, and about a third of it is on pavement. Start and finish are on the track encircling the football field. 

What to Bring:

• uniform
• everyday training shoes
• racing shoes if you have them
• warmup clothes
• sunscreen
• water bottle - BRING YOUR WATER BOTTLE, it does you no good sitting on a shelf at home!
• snacks for post-race (chocolate milk will be provided using proceeds from the Wayland XC Challenge)

for parents:

• The best (only) place to watch the race apart from the start and finish at the track is along Railroad Ave., near the middle school parking lot. See the course map linked above.
