		2015 Season Notes
1. All meets are required, except Monterey Bay (PSAT), and Mt SAC (if we go).
2. All practices are required, including Saturdays (August & September).  Normal practice time is 3:15 to 6:15PM, Monday-Friday, Saturdays at 7AM.
3. You must have a completed physical and insurance to practice during the season. Do not wait to get your physical done.
4. You must have a proper pair of running shoes throughout the season.
5. You must have warm-up pants.
6. Schedule tests (SAT & ACT) around the meets.  The PSAT,as always, will be problematic.
7. Tryouts begin August 14th and end August 22rd.  School begins on August 17th, so no double days. Anyone who wants to tryout
after that period or misses the majority of tryouts will have to run two time trials.  The standard will be boys: 1 mile <6:00 and 2 miles <13:00,
girls 1 mile <7:00 and 2 miles <15:00.
8. There will be cuts if necessary.
