 		Practice Schedule:

Wednesdays 3:15 - 4:30

Fridays 3:15 - 4:30 

Our runners get to take a ​variety of routes,including up to the Hippie Tree, as it isknown, the trails and hills behind St. Hilary,as well as to Blackies Pasture and Belvedere Park. The average run can be from 1.5 to 3 miles, depending on skill level. In addition to the runs (or during the runs) the runners engage in games and drills to improve speed and endurance. We also focus on running technique, proper hydration and race strategy.

For kids with a conflict on one of the training​ days due to another sport: Your runner isstill welcome to join the team and just train with us on the day he or she is free.

Rain Policy:

On training days, if it is raining in Tiburon at noon, practice is presumed canceled and an email will be sent confirming. For meet days,whether it is canceled is determined by the race host and will be communicated as soon as possible.
 We start our runs from the grassy area next to the gymnasium at Saint Hilary School. There are three or four meets
a season. The meets are hosted
by different schools each year on
different dates, including a Marin
County Championship hosted by
Marin County for​ 6th-8th graders.
The meet dates a​re during the
week and are determined during
a coaches meeting in mid-
September. The schedule will be
disseminated as soon as we
receive it. Parents must drive
their kids to the meets (or make
car pool arrangements).

3rd-5th runners race against
their age group and there are
separate girls and boys races.

The 6th-8th graders also race 
against their age group and
there are separate girls and
boys races.

If you are a 6th-8th grader, you
must compete in two meets if
you want to run in the Marin
County Championship. This rule
was strictly enforced last year
to prevent kids from not training
or participating on teams and
then simply racing (and winning)
the Championship on behalf of
the school.

Race distances for all grades
​are 1.00 to 
1.25 miles.
Information: This fun sports is open to all 3rd to 8th Grade Students from any local school.​ ​

Questions: Please contact Denise Sutherland​ or during the summer, check this page for updated information.
