Trackapalooza, FLRC’s summer track invitational, will take place at Groton High School on Saturday, July 19, beginning at 9 AM. We’re anticipating lots of great races and looking forward to seeing new entries at the top of the FLRC Track leaderboard. All ages and abilities welcome!
Check the meet page for all the details, but here are the key bits:
- Events: Choose from six individual running events, ranging from the 100m to the 5000m, high jump, long jump, triple jump, shot put, and discus. For experienced hurdlers, we’re adding the 100m hurdles for women and the 110m hurdles for men (thanks to Team SOAR and the Groton Project for managing the field events). We’ll also have a 4x200m relay that you’ll sign up for at the meet.
- Volunteer: If you’re not running or only want to do one event, please join our volunteer crew! We need more people, particularly field event helpers and timers for lane-based races (and we’ll love you for more than your thumb). Volunteers also get a brightly colored T-shirt and post-meet ice cream. To volunteer, please sign up in Helper Helper.
- New to track? If you’ve never run a track meet before, or never run one of ours, check out our First-Timer’s FAQ for Track Meets. Additional questions? Just ask!
- Registration: Our Webscorer registration system works well, but please follow the instructions on how to enter seed times correctly. Contact me if you need a new club or school team added to the menu.
Looking forward to seeing lots of you at the Groton High School track on Saturday, July 19!
