December training and upcoming events are available here.
Winter training is about to begin! Through December 2022, we will meet as a group only on Wednesdays from 3-4:30 at Myers Park. It is COLD and it will get DARK quickly -- but runners are tough and don't make excuses.
All current and active members of the Fleet will receive a training schedule via email on Wednesday, 12/1. This will include Wednesday workouts as well as training suggestions for the rest of the week. Exciting events on the horizon: Ithaca College is hosting a USATF regional championship in February along with at least one youth skill clinic, and Finger Lakes Running Club is continuing with their Winter Chill 5K series. We encourage our runners to participate in both! Remember: mood follows movement -- so keep active all winter and stay happy!! Members can anticipate Wednesday trainings through the end of February (we will not hold practices during school breaks) and should look for additional updates via this blog and your email. Finger Lakes Fleet Group Training sessions will take place on the following schedule starting on July 6, 2021:

Welcome! The pandemic through which we are all living has brought so many unexpected things, including some opportunities along the way. This club is one such opportunity. Forming a USATF youth club has been an idea that has been rolling around in my brain for years now, and with interscholastic running on hold in Section IV, now seems like a window of opportunity for this seed of an idea to be cultivated and grown. That said, safety and health must be prioritized, and so our interactions will be limited during this time of social distancing. We are only accepting registrations for runners ages 13-18 who live within the Lansing Central School district boundaries. Practices will be 60-90 min, outdoors only, with no access to indoor facilities (including restrooms). Masks are required as is a health self-screening, and temperatures will be checked upon arrival. Runners must be registered members of the club as well as indicate attendance on the TeamSnap app. If fewer than five people indicate they will attend the practice, we may cancel that practice. We are currently allowing up to 20 runners to attend a practice. All participants will be expected to abide by club policies. |
