Winter conditioning runs are posted on FinalSurge for student athletes planning to run 800m, 1600m, or 3200m on the track this spring. If you do not have a FinalSurge account, create an account on FinalSurge.com and email to Coach Kohuth (steven_kohuth@dpsk12.net) and send him the email address you used to create the account; he will then invite you to join the team so you have access to the Winter Conditioning workouts posted online.

Workouts posted on FinalSurge reflect the maximum distance an experienced varsity runner should run on a given day. Newer JV runners should only run 70% of the minutes posted, while younger varsity runners and experience JV runners should run 80-90% of the distance (minutes) posted. All runs should be followed by “strides” as posted in the schedule (generally 4-6 strides at race pace of 20-25 seconds). All athletes should maintain their core and range of motion routine following workouts.

Coach Kohuth and Coach Scudamore will start voluntary track practices for distance runners 1-2 days per week following the winter break – follow the TRACK website for updates on the schedule of preseason practices. Cross country runners planning to run track this spring should follow the track website: easthightrack.org. (Remember to subscribe to updates with the + sign on the bottom.)
