Course Map:
As of this writing, a course map isn't available. From a conversation with the MVRHS coach, the course begins and ends on the high school ball fields before entering the state forest to the south. The course in the forest uses access roads which to my understanding are unpaved. The 3k course is a single loop while the 5k has multiple loops. We'll arrive in time to see the course, which can be part of your warmup.
Packing List:
Clothes:
• Uniform
• Everyday running shoes
• Racing shoes if you have them. We'll have spike elements of different lengths available depending on the footing.
• Warmup clothes including a short sleeved shirt, long sleeved shirt, and warmup pants

Non-food items:
• Water bottles (plural) - filled, ideally at least half a gallon of water
• Folding chair - important to have something to sit on other than the ground
• Sunscreen
• Insect repellent
• Pillow
Food:
• Lunch to eat at the meet
• Dinner or a large snack which can be eaten on the ferry back to Woods Hole or before getting back on the bus. Due to allergy concerns, there is to be no eating while on the bus.
• Chocolate milk will be provided using proceeds from the Wayland XC Festival
For Parents:
• Parents are welcome to come along, on the same ferry even, but must pay their own way. My understanding is that the transportation from the ferry terminal to the high school is for coaches and athletes only which is something to keep in mind.
• Snacks are welcome, but due to allergy concerns the Athletic Director has asked that any snacks be individually wrapped and ideally have the ingredients written on the label.
