DCL Relays - Wednesday 9/16

Meet Site: Playstead Field at Franklin Park, Boston.

Bus Time: 2:30 PM

First race 4:15 PM unless you hear different from me

Meet Information:

• Weather forecast: temperatures in the high 70s at race time, with light winds from the ESE. With the breeze, you'll want to wear more than just your uniform while warming up and cooling down.
• The race course will be the a loop that's roughly 3k in length. This is just under 2 miles. A baton will be passed from one runner to the next in each three person team.
• The first runner on each team is responsible for getting a baton from me before their race; the last runner on each team is responsible for returning the baton to me. Unlike the relay meet on Saturday, we are providing our own batons for this one.
• After running your race and catching your breath, be sure to do a thorough cooldown jog of 15-30 minutes. This is your chance to see more of the park if you like. 
• Return time to WHS is approximate, but we should be back by 6:30 or so.

What to bring:

• uniform
• everyday training shoes
• racing shoes if you have them
• warmup clothes
• sunscreen
• 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 Challenge)

for parents:

• There's a small parking lot at the corner of Circuit Drive and Pierpont Road; there's also a larger lot further down Circuit Drive, as well as on-street parking on Circuit Drive.
• If you're going to be at the meet and would like to take your child with you when their race is over, please let either Coach Lehmann or me know.
