20 MILE MENTAL TOUGHNESS RUN

Students and Volunteers, This is the weekend! Our last long run, 20 miles, will be this weekend in Golden Gate Park. There is currently a chance of rain, so bring your SRO jacket and/or hat to prepare for running in chilly weather. All students must complete the run in 5 hours or less. Volunteers should plan to run with the student(s) with whom you have been paired with. As always, in addition to running volunteers, we will have several volunteers on bikes as well as water stops every few miles. We're here to support you every step of the way.

Students, as you know, at the beginning of the season you signed a Student Contract in which you made several commitments to SRO as a community. These commitments included not only attending practices and Saturday training runs, but also goals for school attendance and grade point average. If you have not been consistently meeting these commitments, Student Liaison Aimee should be in touch with you to help you form a plan for improving and meeting your Student Contract.

Remember, as Coach Al like to say “IT’S MIND OVER MATTER, IF YOU DON’T MIND IT DOESN’T MATTER”

Good luck and enjoy your run!!
