Meet Information:
•
Weather forecast: sunny, temperatures around 60 degrees with light variable winds. Please have adequate warmups and to wear them before
and after racing.
•
Runners must report to the starting line 10 minutes before the start of
their race, and begin removing sweats 5 minutes before their race
starts.
• Each team is assigned a box along the starting line. We'll know our box number after we arrive at the meet site.
• The top 15 finishers in each varsity race, the top 8 JV and the top 7 9th graders (boys and girls both) will receive awards.
• While the course
will surely be well marked, it's a good idea to check it out during
your warmup. Please note the course tour is self-guided, using the maps below.
• If this is your final meet of the season, bring an extra change of clothes and after we return to Wayland you can change out of your uniform in the field house and return it to one of the coaches.
• Return time to WHS is approximate, but we hope to be back around 6:00 PM depending on traffic.
Course Map and Description:
• The 5k course used in the varsity and JV races has three loops:
• The first loop starts on the Playstead field and goes around these fields and White Stadium.
• The second loop goes part of the way around the fields and stadium before heading up and over Bear Cage Hill. On the other side of Bear Cage Hill the second loop rejoins terrain covered on the first loop again.
• The third loop covers the Wilderness and Playstead field.
• The 9th grade race incorporates the first two of the three loops shown on the maps below. While the boys and girls 9th graders will start together at the same time, the races will be scored separately for the purpose of giving out individual awards.
What to bring:
• uniform
• everyday training shoes
• racing shoes if you have them
•
warmup clothes including: long sleeved shirt, pants, windbreaker,
gloves, hat
• water bottle
•
snacks for post-race (chocolate milk will be provided using proceeds
from the Wayland XC Festival). If you're running in a later race, bring a snack to
have when we first arrive at the park to tide you over
until your race.
• folding chair if you want something to sit on while changing shoes
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 one of the coaches know.
•
The area just beyond the finish line is a good spot to see the race at
various points as the runners pass by this spot repeatedly.
