First day of the season/preseason

After a morning of the necessary details -- physicals, NCAA paperwork and meetings -- our athletes finally were able to do what they love the most: Run. Men's practice was at Mills Mansion; women's practice was at Bowdoin Park. We had a program record four vans in use -- two for the men's practice, two for the women's practice.

The men's practice of hills went well. They were run smart, strong and with spirit. Reports from the women's practice were positive as well. Because of the late summer heat and dryness, breathing issues were a greater problem than usual. But everyone got through the first day just fine.

Minnewaska is on tap for the morning on Tuesday, with a possible "special guest" runner joining the team.
