The 2024 Cross Country season is here!
Wednesday is an easy day.
Most of the country has held state meetings (California is the latest, on November 30). Many young people intercity
runners prepare for the NIKE NXN and 45th FootLocker Presented by HOKA Cross Country Championships.
We take some ideas from the great Australian trainer Pat Clohessy, who trained Rob De Castella and Steve Moneghetti.
Cross Country is the real key to developing as a distance runner.
For most high schoolers competing at NXN and FootLocker, there are six more weeks of training and racing ahead.

good warm up
45-65 minutes of moderate running, 6 x 150 meter runs,
cool well
Check your shoes and make sure your training shoes
ready for another 8-9 weeks of training. (Most of the boots make up a 12 week workout)
If not, go to a local running store and find a pair or two of good training shoes.
We will talk about that soon.
