As several of you have noted, I incorrectly put the meet this week on Wednesday the 19th when it is actually on Thursday the 20th. Everyone will run the repeat 300 meter workout tomorrow, and Wednesday will be an easy day for everyone. On Friday the runners who raced on Thursday will only have to run 4 x 200 yards on the hill at Truman Pkwy.
On Wednesday we will have a biomechanical evaluation of our athletes by 3 physical therapists. Brenda Shaeffer of Advantage Physical Therapy has organized this. She did this for the lacrosse team in the past and they found it very helpful. A total of 6 different measurements will be performed on each athlete. This is a brief evaluation to look for potential flexibility and joint orientation problems. There are common problems that may be helped by stretching or strengthening exercises, and frequently these are prevalent enough for the whole team to work on them together. This is painless, the results will be confidential, and there's no cost to the athletes. This will take place in the auditorium from 3 PM to the end of practice, and we'll have half the team go in at a time while the other half does their workout. I greatly appreciate Brenda Shaeffer helping us in this way. Coach Eden
