Team:
If there is one thing 2020 has taught us so far, it is that we should be writing on our calendars with pencils not Sharpies–because plans will change! Given that everything we plan is subject to COVID-19, air quality, global climate change, first contact with an alien race from Tau Ceti and Coach Flatow being bitten by a radioactive rabbit and developing superpowers, and other more or less likely events, here are some dates for your calendar:
Monday, September 14 17: First Day of Fall Conditioning
This start date is subject to air quality, but we will be starting Fall Conditioning sessions soon. As I write this Mr. Bonacorsi has still not updated the clearance list, so if your parents have not completed the clearance form or you have not filled out our sorting form, please do so!
Fall Conditioning is scheduled for Monday through Friday from 4pm to 6pm, and Saturday from 7am to 9 or 10am. There will probably be a cohort reshuffle in October. Fall training will go until some time in November, we will take a brief break, and then restart for the CIF/CCS Cross Country season. CIF is scheduled to start on December 14, and we might have a week of Fall Conditioning before that date.
Friday October 2: Virtual Pasta Night
Saturday October 3: Monta Vista Pandemic Challenge Series–3200m Time Trial on the MV Track
Details to follow.
Saturday October 17: Monta Vista Pandemic Challenge Series–Half-Marathon Ekiden Relay
Details to follow, but we hope to run this on the Los Gatos Creek Trail so athletes will need some transportation.
Saturday October 31: Monta Vista Pandemic Challenge Series–TBD and Halloween.
????: Virtual Fall Training Season Banquet
December 14: First Day of CIF/CCS Season Practice
You must be cleared before this date, with all paperwork and procedures completed.
