Dual Meet #2 vs. Boston Latin, CCHS @CCHS, 9/25/19

Meet Site: Concord Carlisle High School, 500 Walden Street, Concord

Bus leaves at 2:45
race schedule TBA (stay tuned!), first race should be 4:15

Course Map: 




The course is 2.6 miles long. The start and finish are on a natural grass ball field above and behind the school building. The course begins and ends with a loop in the woods between the artificial turf fields and the highway. This upper woods loop of the course is indicated in red and green on the map. There's also a loop around the lower natural grass baseball fields in between the two visits to the upper woods loop. This lower field loop is indicated in blue on the map. The woods loop and lower field loop are separated by a ridge, with a hill that's fairly steep but relatively short.

Meet Information:

• Weather forecast: Sunny, temperatures in the low to mid 70s with 5-10 mph winds from the west. It will be warmer than last week's meet but still reasonably comfortable for racing. Bring clothes to wear at the meet besides your uniform. In addition, bring a plastic bag to keep your clothes and bag dry when not being worn.
It's expected that during the race you will wear the full uniform assigned to you.
• You'll need to wear your assigned bib number which is the same number you wore in last week's home meet . After your race and before you leave, please return this bib number to the ziploc bag that holds the bib numbers and safety pins, which is in turn kept inside the large red duffel bag.
• There will be a course tour sometime soon after we arrive but no earlier than 3:15.

 What to Bring:

• uniform
• everyday training shoes
• racing shoes if you have them
• warmup clothes
• sunscreen
• plastic bag to store clothes and backpack/duffel bag
• water bottle - including a larger (24-32 oz.) bottle if you have one
• snacks for post-race (chocolate milk will be provided using proceeds from the Wayland XC Festival)

for parents:

• The best place to watch the race is on and around the field where the race begins and ends. See map and description above.

• Parking behind the school building near the upper fields is very tight. Your best bet if you're coming to the meet to watch is to park in front of the school in the main parking lot and then walk up the hill.
