Meet Information:

• Weather forecast: temperatures in the high 50s, overcast with a chance of showers, winds 10 mph from the NE. A big change from Saturday's meet, much cooler and with the wind blowing it will feel raw. No one will be allowed on the bus wearing nothing but their uniform. You'll need to have your arms and legs covered during the course tour and warmup as well as the cooldown.
• You'll need to wear your assigned DCL bib number for this race; afterward, please return it to one of the coaches for future use.
• This is a "double dual" meet in that there are three teams contesting three separate dual meets: Wayland vs. Newton South, Wayland vs. Waltham, and Waltham vs. Newton South.
• I've sent a map of the course to everyone on the mailing list; it's a two loop course in the woods with a much smaller loop at the beginning around the soccer fields. UPDATE: the boys will be running a different course from the girls. The girls course is 2.7 miles long, the boys course will be 3.1 miles long.

What to bring:

• uniform
• everyday training shoes
• racing shoes if you have them
• warmup clothes
• 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)
• folding chair if you want something to sit on while changing shoes

Information for Parents:

• The course is NOT located at Newton South High School; please see above for the address of Cold Spring Park where the meet will be held.
