NO TRACK PRACTICE MARCH 15 - MAY 4 BY ORDER OF MSHSL.
We will provide workout suggestions so that you can continue your training ON YOUR OWN. We do NOT encourage groups getting together to practice and THE TRACK IS NOT OPEN TO ANY ATHLETES OR COACHES WHILE THE SCHOOL IS CLOSED.
WORKOUTS
ALL ATHLETES SHOULD WARM UP AND COOL DOWN. For directions, see "WARM UP - COOL DOWN - PLYOS" and "DYNAMIC WARM UP" below:
CIRCUIT WORKOUTS
These are great workouts that can be done anywhere for overall conditioning and strength (click on "Circuits" link below). In addition to these, there are many free workout videos or programs online. The Beachbody videos (P90X, T25, etc.) are free for two weeks right now. Many health insurance providers are also offering free workout resources to their members.
EVENT-SPECIFIC VIDEOS/DRILLS
Three times per week, do event specific videos/drills for 30 minutes. Click on your event below:

MTFCCA Membership Plea
There is a need for volunteers to continue the success of the MTFCCA. Our largest fundraiser is the Tonka Turkey Trot and the same core group of parents have shouldered the load for many years. A special word of thanks to those parents. Many of these parents no longer have students in the program. If we could get a couple parents to volunteer from each grade level, it would contribute to continuity and transition from year to year. A particular need is in the area of graphic arts, but any and all skills are welcome. If you can help a little or a lot, please consider helping this year and for a few years in the future.
