Winter Training, Some Thoughts

Want to know how much you will improve in 2025?

If you commit to cross country in the fall and follow our Winter training for eight weeks, your spring season will start with a fitter you.

If you can afford them, we suggest wearing two pairs of training shoes, stretching before and after your workouts, taking hard days off, and getting some focus.

You are becoming fitter and fitter each and every day!

Other book suggestions include Self Made Olympian by Ron Daws, A Clean Pair of Heels by Murray Halberg, and Pre! by Tom Jordan.
