Good afternoon everyone,

We hope you are prepared for the expected inclement weather this weekend and are staying safe and warm.

Below is the link to access the Media Day photos. You are welcome to customize the images by altering backgrounds using apps such as PhotoRoom or CapCut—both are great tools that I personally use when uploading media posts.

Congratulations on a great competition week. We saw many personal records and a large number of first-time competitors on the track this weekend—excellent work by everyone.
Please take time to review and note your times and marks as you begin the season. Tracking these results is an important tool for measuring progress and setting goals throughout the year. Our objective is always to finish Top 8 in your age division and/or consistently set personal records.
