VARSITY
“V” runners will be composed of our top 10 runners throughout the season.  

JUNIOR VARSITY
“JV” runners are those that have met the time standard but are outside of the top 10.  JV runners may work into the top 10.

DEVELOPMENTAL
“DV” runners are those that have not met the time standard.  They will be working to make JV.  Also they will be limited in what meets they can compete in.

Blog Address
The blog is used as a communication tool throughout the season.  
Please visit it for updates to schedules and resources specific to LCS XC.

Open/Optional Workouts
These workouts are open/optional.  You are not required to be at workouts but are strongly encouraged to participate.

Dead Periods
The last week of school coaches are not allowed to have contact with athletes in a workout setting.  This will be a OYO time,  June 29 - July 4 and July 20 - July 24 and dead periods set forth by the NCHSAA.  These are also times when coaches may not hold workouts for athletes but athletes may workout on their own (OYO).

LCS XC CAMP
Please go to Eagles e-market and register for our XC Camp.  The cost is $45.  All money made goes into our XC account.  This is a great kick off to our season and you should make every effort to attend.  See dates above.

PHYSICALS
Your physical must be current/up to date to participate in summer workouts.  No excuses will be accepted.  If you are unsure please check with Elizabeth Abernathy our Certified Athletic Trainer.

Weekly Running Program/Running Log
We have a week by week plan available for you to follow during the summer months.  It is planned and based on ability.  This will make running in the summer easier and give you some direction.  I am also asking that you keep track of your miles and what workouts you are doing during the summer months.  I get the feeling that some of our more experienced runners are not doing as much as they feel they are doing.  I am providing you with your log sheets.
