Sophomore Chris Estevez and eighth-grader Jace C. start their track and field season along with the rest of the team. Practices start at 6:15 a.m. on the track and take place Monday through Thursday, and there are long runs on Saturdays off-campus.
“We start with a mile warmup, then we do some dynamics or mobile exercises,” Estevez said. “Then, we grab some water and head out to the neighborhood for an easy run or we head to the track for a workout.”
The first track meet is at Rockledge High School on Feb. 17 at 8:30 a.m.
“I am excited for my first meet because this is my first year doing track,” Jace said. “I think it’s pretty cool, and I’m excited to see what it’s all about.”
