Lowell invite
- This Invitational hosts 13 separate races, because of that, we don't arrive and depart as a team like at DeLaSalle or Stinson. You arrive at your time posted below and leave after your cool down/medal ceremony. You are encouraged to stay for the race after yours to cheer for teammates. We arrive early to acclimate, get your bib and timing chip, and start warm-ups 50 minutes prior to your race.

- This race requires bib numbers, when you arrive there will be a tub with bibs and safety pins, you have to find yours. Check the list and to find your number and be kind to your uniform when you pin it on. DO NOT FOLD BEND OR PUNCTURE THE TIMING CHIP IN YOUR BIB
- Before your race check out the start line and finish line. Over an hour and ten minutes prior to your race you should be out on the course cheering, 1:10minutes before your race you should be at the tent to check in with Coach G & take your team photo.
- We will have lots of pop-ups and tarps, but you are encouraged to bring chairs and blankets/towels to sit on.
- Warm-ups will be performed just like at Stinson but you likely won’t be warming up with your captains, your team of 6-22 runners needs to organize yourself and start your warms-ups 50 minutes before the race. Once you have started your warm-ups all focus should be on the race. Please stick to your team. After the race, unpin your bib and keep it, it is a great marker of the day, write the date and your time on the back. If you don’t want it, it needs to get into a trash can, the pins can go back in the bucket, change out of flats if you run in them, and head out on your 15-20 min cool down.
- After -drink water, have a snack, thank your parents, give a pep talk to someone who hasn’t run yet, and then find a spot on the course to cheer our other runners on.
- T-shirts will be for sale
