CLICK HERE FOR THE COMPLETE PLAINFIELD CENTRAL INFORMATION PACKET

Our first major invitational of the season is this Saturday, at the Plainfield Central Invitational. This is an invitational that we have been attending since 1977 -- it is the only invitational that was on our original schedule that is still on our schedule today. 2015 marks the 39th consecutive season we've attended this meet.

Although we are running these races in the morning on Saturday, it is once again expected to be a very warm day as the September heat wave continues on. Current forecasts call for temperatures to already be in the mid-70s by the time we arrive at the meet, with the temperature rapidly rising into the upper 80s to near 90 by the end of the meet. We'll bring plenty of water and ice along with us on the bus with us.

ATHLETES: YOU SHOULD BE HYDRATING FOR THE MEET THE NIGHT BEFORE! DRINK LOTS OF WATER! (And enjoy a fantastic pasta party!)
