Welcome to the 2023 JMS Track and Field season! Our first practice is this coming Monday, February 27th. While parent-teacher conferences will make our first week challenging, we will practice Monday through Thursday and offer a voluntary practice on Friday. Our normal practices are from 2:45-4:45.
For Monday through Thursday, we will meet in the auditorium after school. You do not need to leave your eighth hour class early. When the bell rings at 2:35, go to the locker room, change into workout clothes, and head to the auditorium. Be in the auditorium and ready to listen by 2:50. This gives you 15 minutes after class to change clothes, use the restroom, and to fill your water bottle.
Workout Clothes: Always pay attention to the weather forecast. Our coaches expect you to come to practice prepared. Wear shorts and a T-shirt and running shoes. Also wear warm-up sweats. This would usually mean a hoodie and sweatpants, but leggings are fine. You may want a stocking cap/beanie and gloves if it is windy and/or cold.
Water Bottle: If you bring a water bottle to practice, please have your name on it. It is a good idea to bring water. We often go to Hickman to practice, and we do not have access to their building for water and restrooms. We are only there for 45 minutes to an hour, so please use the bathroom before practice.
