Spring Track & Field – Time to prepare!!

Practice starts next Monday, so if you’ve been sittin’ around all winter, it’s time to get moving! Need some help getting started? – Check out these online training articles.

For those of you who are new, take note; if you’re a veteran, pay attention. The time to go shopping for track & field necessities is NOW. Running gear, shoes, spikes, warm-ups, hats, gloves(yes, running gloves), hoodies, and all sorts of other training items a budding track & field athlete might need…..stop watch, tape, Tape, and MORE TAPE!! athletic tape–there’s never enough to go around. The local stores all run out, so it’s best to buy a case of that stuff right now. If you buy it locally, you’ll spend a fortune; best to shop online. One fantastic online resource is Everthing Track & Field. You can find anything and everything track & field related there. This is their 50th anniversary too, so all their items include FREE SHIPPING.

Better hurry too, our first outdoor track meet is March 31!!!

Fleet Feet Special Event

Puma is sponsoring a Spike Night at the store on Saturday, March 13th and we’re going to be offering a few deals, which includes $10 off of any Puma shoe and $5 off of any other spike. We’re also having Max Smith, a Puma athlete and Sub 4 miler, in store to help get everyone ready to get out on the track.

Fleet Feet is carrying the top of the line from Puma, including the shoes that Usain Bolt set his 100m and 200m World Records in. We’re also carrying a large selection from Nike, Adidas, Asics, Brooks, Saucony and New Balance. If any of your athletes are looking for some of the harder to find spikes, we can help out with that.

Fleet Feet is also extending a special invitation to the Fairport team. If any would like, they can come in the day before the main event. We’re expecting a decent crowd on Saturday, so we are inviting a select few to come in early and get the best selection. Everyone is more than welcome to come in on Saturday as well, but if any athletes want to beat the masses and get the best selection, they’re welcome to come in on Friday. Just make sure the athletes let us know what school they’re from.

Indoor Track & Field Banquet

Date:  Sunday, March 21, 2010
Time:   11:00am
Place:  Midvale Country Club

Banquet Invitation Form

The Invitations/Reservation forms will be in the mail after the February break. This seems like a long delay for the athletes whose season has ended, but we had to wait until after Sectionals and State Q’s for those still competing.

· We need a few volunteers to help with set-up and table decorations the morning of the banquet
· We are also looking for some volunteers to assist Patty Stoutz with the scholarship selection process
· Does anyone have access to printing services for our Banquet Programs?
· The Spring Track Season will have started by the time we have our banquet, so in moving forward, we will need some volunteers to help coordinate subs on the bus and/or a team pasta party.

Please let us know if you can help in any of these areas.

Thank you,
