1st “Workout Of The Week” (WOW) Posted

Each week this summer, a new “Workout of the Week” will be posted.

All players trying out this fall should take the challenge. You can do it in small groups; the captains will also set a day and time for those wishing to do it with larger numbers. If you’re not in Westport, do a similar workout on your own.

Email your running times to dwoog@optonline.net. Top 3 times overall, and top time by grade, will be posted.

Workout of the Week (WOW) for June 23-29.
