Off-season Training: Week 10 (Aug 11)

Goal for Week 10: Stay healthy and have fun.

Our first running practice is Saturday, August 17, at 6:30 am at the Fitness Center. Physicals/medical paperwork are required to be completed by Friday, August 16, at 5:30 pm. There are still a couple of freshmen and several juniors who need to get their physicals done in order to practice and be on the team. Most of the team still needs to turn in medical paperwork. Sickle cell tests and medical history forms only need to be done once while at Drury. Consent forms and health insurance forms/info need to be done every year by all runners. Anyone who is taking prescription medication (inhalers,etc.) needs to have documentation from their family doctor on file with the trainers.

We'll do a long run of 13 miles on Sunday, August 18, at 7:30 am from the Bread Co (East Sunshine) to the Nature Center, and then run 60-70 miles during our first week of practice.


Sunday Long Run (75 minutes or more)

Monday 6-7 miles

Tuesday 8-9 miles with hill repeats (8 x 150m)

Wednesday 9-10 miles
