CHSXC Week of 7/13-7/19

Important Team Updates

⛺ Last Call for Camp Registration

Camp registration will close tomorrow so we can submit our T-shirt order. Please register as soon as possible if you plan to attend.

⚠️ Maroon Air Quality Alert

Ohio is currently under a Maroon Air Quality Alert. We ran inside the main gym today, and outdoor running is strongly discouraged while air quality remains at this level.

Athletes working out at home should use an indoor treadmill, cycle or swim. If the air bothers you while exercising indoors, skip the day’s workout.

We will continue adjusting workouts until conditions improve.

📱 Saturday Practice Update

I will provide an update through Remind regarding the status of Saturday’s practice.
