HARC Week

We are about to start HARC Week! This is an important week for our preparations for the upcoming season.  Every day we will be challenging the team with higher altitude runs.  Because we are heading up the canyons each day, we will be getting back to Hillcrest later than we have been.  Because each morning run will start at higher elevations than we are used to, runners will probably want a light jacket or long sleeved tee or sweat shirt before we start the runs, it will be chilly.

We will also be holding practice twice each day. We will meet at Hillcrest for all practices this week.  Morning practice will be at 6 am and evening practice will be at 6 pm.

Monday:
morning practice: Lamb's Canyon Trail.  We will carpool to the Lamb's Canyon trail head.  To get to the trail head, we will caravan up Parley's Canyon to the Lamb's Canyon exit and then head up the canyon until we get to the trail head.  For breakfast we will be meeting at Washington Terrace Park near Mt. Dell Golf Course.  The park is a short drive back down Parley's Canyon from Lamb's Canyon.

evening practice: Hillcrest.  Evening practices will be short recovery runs with some frozen treats after the run each day.  Each evening practice should be done by about 7 pm.
