Fall championships are earned through summer training and summer training is about building a strong endurance base. This year we are starting a program to record and reward summer training.
Log your daily training miles in Strava. Athletes who run 300 miles during the summer (1 June - 10 August) will earn the MCHS Aerobic Monster 300-Mile club t-shirts.
Miles run on your own when vacationing and unable to attend practices DO count. Honor System!
While it's called the 300-Mile Club, I want it to be an encouraging challenge but not lead to running excessive miles for our younger runners. So the mileage targets are stepped as below.Â
10th-12th Grade Boys - 300 miles
10th-12th Grade Girls - 270 miles
9th Grade Boys - 250 miles
9th Grade Girls - 240 miles
8th Grade Boys - 220 miles
8th Grade Girls - 200 miles
7th Grade Boys - 200 miles
7th Grade Girls - 180 miles
New 9th-12th Grade runners (haven't run with MCHS before) - 175 miles
New 6th-8th Grade runners (haven't run with MCHS before) - 150 miles
