*Parents* are welcomed and strongly encouraged to attend the team meeting, fitness test, and eat dinner with the team on Saturday August 22, 2009. Parents we would like you to feel like part of our team, so please feel free to attend these first few events to cheer on your son or daughter and his or her teammates. Practice times fall 2009: Please note we plan to practice from 4pm to 6pm this fall.

I strongly encourage you and your family and friends to add yourselves as a follower of this website (Click on the “follow” link on right side of the page) so that I know you are staying updated. I also encourage you to post comments or questions on new posts, and take part in the interactive surveys that I will offer. http://lssurunning.blogspot.com/ Location: This year we will again travel to Bay Cliff Health Camp in Big Bay, MI, which is located 22 miles northwest of Marquette, MI.

The costs will cover housing and food while at Bay Cliff. There is no need to bring additional spending money. The team will cover all transportation costs and all costs associated with the meet at Michigan Tech University. Mail checks to: Cross Country Office 650 West Easterday Avenue Sault Ste Marie, MI 49783 Transportation: The team will provide transportation to all athletes that are cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse. Physicals: Those who have not completed a physical will need to do so prior to the beginning of crosscountry camp. You can get a physical at home by your local doctor however; it needs to be completed on the LSSU physical form.

This is an important requirement…please log on today or you will be contacted to do so. To become a member of our training “club” please register if you are not already a LogYourRun.com user. http://www.logyourrun.com/my-profile/registers.html Once you are logged in, please click on the following link, which will assign you to Lake Superior State University Running.

This year our men’s team will attempt to complete 10 km in 34minutes and our women’s team will attempt to complete 6km in 24 minutes. This year each true cross country athlete will finish the distance for time even if they fall off pace. Please remember to be very diligent and consistent with your training this summer. The fitness test is realistic for those who train appropriately.
Fitness Test Incentive: Those athletes eligible for cross country who pass the fitness test and keep a training log on logyourrun.com will receive a pair of Asics shoes. So train hard this summer and keep up your training log! NCAA Clearinghouse: It is important for all incoming freshman to be cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse prior to arrival at cross-country camp. Athletes must be cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse in order to travel with the team off campus as well as to compete. (Our first competition is Friday August 28, 2009 at Michigan Tech University).

Remember to send in your final transcripts after you graduate this spring and also please remember to complete the amateurism portion with the NCAA Clearinghouse. Both
portions need to be completed before camp. The NCAA requires proof of graduation. Please contact the NCAA Clearinghouse early for it can take several weeks to get cleared. Do not wait until the end of
