  • Finish Line: - At the conclusion of a race we ask coaches to help out our staff by keeping parents and fans out of the restricted area at the finish line.   If an athlete is hurt or extremely tired, please let our training staff work with the athlete.   The more people we get in the restricted finish area causes major problems with the finish of the race.  Thank you for your cooperation!!!
