Cam Johnson Crushes Boys 600m Indoor School Record

The previous school record 1:24.7 was set 18 years ago and tied again 5 years later. It would remain untouched for the next 13 years….longer than Cam has been in school. Until Saturday night at RIT, against light competition posing no threat, and providing little motivation, Cam literally sprinted the entire 600 meters to lower the school record by running almost 5 seconds faster than the nearest competitor. Cam’s time? 1:23.01!

Congratulations Cam! Your name will be proudly added to our School Records page for the next 1…5…10…15 years perhaps? or longer?

After school workouts – what you need

In addition to the ‘tips’ listed below. ALL ATHLETES NEED TO BRING the following to EVERY practice:

• Warm clothes!
• Wrist watch for timing
• Distance/Mid-distance runners – YOU NEED REFLECTIVE GEAR

Tips for successful winter workouts

Although the meets are contested indoors, much of the training takes place outdoors….even in sub-freezing weather. Brrrrr. So…here’s a few tips that might help you out during those long cold training sessions, as well as a few tips for success.

• Bring proper clothing to EVERY practice
  - running shoes, sweat pants and top, layered in case you do get too warm, shorts, T’s, etc.
  - knit cap, running gloves, ear muffs
  - long-distance runners may want to bring (and wear) reflective vests for the long runs through the neighborhoods
• Rejuvenating sports beverage (water works well)
• Eat a healthy lunch during the day. If possible, bring a nutritious snack to eat between lunch and workouts.
• Good attitude!
