Meet Information:

• Weather forecast: temperatures in the low 70s, overcast partly cloudy with winds from the south. No one will be allowed on the bus wearing nothing but their uniform. 
• 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.
• There are two different courses in use at this site; the boys will run a 3.1 mile course, the girls a 2.7 mile course. This is a decision made individually by each of the Newton South coaches (there are separate coaches for boys and girls at NS). FWIW the 2.7 mile course had been in use by both genders for 30+ years. I've sent a map of each 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. Both courses finish on the soccer fields. 

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.
