For those who are not in a winter sport, you should be training. Track and Field starts on Feb. 27th, eleven weeks from Monday. I have enclosed the winter training schedule for those 11 weeks. The off-season is a good time to work on core and arm strength. Everyone should be doing push ups, pull ups, and ab/core work every day. The off-season is also a great time to work on running form, cadence, and breathing techniques. Handouts for Winter Training Program, Strength for HS Runners and Keys to Effective Running have been posted on the Blog (sidebar).
Have a great end to 2011 and a super beginning to 2012!
