The Grace Tigers are in their first week of practice.  The team is working hard and preparing for the season.  They have shown great flexibility as the practice schedule has been changed to accommodate runners who are already attending A-term classes.  Practices are now being held at 3:30 in the afternoon.  This is a hot time of the day, so the team will be well prepared if they run up against hot weather in their races.  As always, they are keeping well hydrated throughout the day to avoid dehydration.  Brandon loves Propel, and Danielle only likes water if it’s cold, but the whole team is working hard at keeping hydrated.  The team is also hitting the weight room two times a week to focus on a strong upper body to drive them through the finish line.  Everyone has settled in the dorms, and Angie even got her stuff situated after a slight wait while the old occupant moved out.  All in all, the season is off to a fast and smooth start.  Go Tigers!
