Mon. XC Workout

WORKOUT PARTICIPATION:

In General

• Workout Commitment – There is no commitment required in terms of how often Club Members attend workouts, other than what the Athlete’s schedule will permit. Athletes have the choice of participating in Track Workouts (Monday & Thursday evenings) or Jumper Workouts (Wednesday evenings), or both.
• Arrival – Plan to arrive 5-10 minutes prior to workouts. This will provide athletes time to change, and warm-up as instructed by the Coach or Assistant Coach.
• Workout Logistics – During workouts Athletes are divided into multiple groups based on that evening’s training plan, number of athletes in attendance, and the ages & abilities of the individual athletes.

Stouffville Arena & Track Facility

• Hydration – Athletes should bring a water bottle, preferably metal, to all workouts. They can be refilled as needed in the washrooms highlighted below, with the exception of Bruce’s Mill.
• XC Workouts:
  • Venue Change – Thursday evening workouts will change venue on Thursday Sep. 26th and move to Bruce’s Mill Conservation Area. Because of the shorter daylight hours and the lack of artificial lighting there the workout hours will be shortened to 6:00-7:00 pm. Please confirm the date of the venue change in the EVENTS CALENDAR a week or so prior to the switch. Monday evening workouts are not affected by this change and will continue to be held at the Stouffville Arena & Track.
  • Bruce’s Mill Parking – When workouts are scheduled at this location parents are asked to park on Warden Avenue just south of Stouffville Road on the east side, and then take the path to walk into the park.
  • Washrooms – For Monday & Thursday evening workouts at the Stouffville track there are washrooms in the adjacent arena.  For Thursday workouts at Bruce’s Mill there are no washroom facilities.
