-The boys finished 2nd and Tyler Langley earned All-State finishing 12th at the MHSAA State Championships! Results are posted on athletic.net.
-Many accomplishments this season. D1 runner-up, 8th consecutive trip to the state meet, 5th Regional Championship in 6 years, 5 runners under 16 minutes for 5K, and 11 runners under 17 minutes. The eagerness of the runners to train with their teammates during the off-season is the driving factor in the program's success. Athletes not competing in a winter sport are highly encouraged to join our optional indoor season workouts.
-All BXC runners that have trained consistently throughout the summer and fall should consider getting their Ferritin (blood iron stores) levels checked. Runners with excellent diets should still get checked periodically if they've been engaging in consistent quality training over several months. This is especially true if an athlete's performance doesn't correlate with the amount of training put into the season. What Is Ferritin by Dr. Kornoelje explains the importance of iron, the nuance of low ferritin levels, and a plan for checking and treating iron related issues.
-Uniform return is next Monday, November 13th. Athletes need to return their washed and dried uniforms (pants, jacket, bag, and 3 singlets) to Coach Elsey's classroom.
-Awards Night is in the Scranton cafeteria from 7-9:30ish on Monday, November 20th. We will not have food or drinks (bring your own coffee). All runners and families are encouraged to attend and celebrate the season!
-Good luck to all BXC athletes trying out for winter sports!
