Distance Training: Week of February 24-March 1, 2025

I. News & Announcements

A. Simplot Results

Our team officially finished up its indoor season this weekend, with Evelyn Cook and Martin Honl both running at the Simplot Games in Pocatello. Evelyn ran in the 1600M prelims on Thursday evening, and in the Freshman Girls 1600M final on Saturday afternoon, where she finished fourth in a time of 5:26. She’s in an outstanding position to start the outdoor season — great job, Evelyn!!

Martin Honl, who many of you have already met, is a student at Layton Christian Academy that will be competing with us during the outdoor season because LCA does not have a track and field program for this season. Martin took first place in the 800M at Simplot, unleashing a strong kick to win in 1:56. Well done, Martin!!

B. New Teammates

All — please welcome Martin Honl and Mason Smith to our team for this upcoming outdoor season. They are both students at LCA, and will be running with us during our outdoor season. Let’s make them feel welcome — they’ll be great assets to our team!

C. Register My Athlete

Everyone, please finish you Register My Athlete as soon as possible. Our athletic director told us this week that Davis School District is emphasizing that all athletes should have RMA completed PRIOR to the start of practice for their sport (which is not what we have ben told previously). So, PLEASE, PLEASE get this done ASAP!

D. Snow Canyon Invitational

If you are planning on running at the Snow Canyon Invitational in St. George on March 7, 2025, please confirm ASAP. As of right now, I think we have Aaron, Nate, Jeffrey, and Lily G planning on going. I’m not sure about Carson, Martin, or Mason. Try to let me know on Monday or Tuesday of this week if at all possible. Remember, to be eligible, you need to have COMPLETED Register My Athlete and paid team fees!
