Hello, MILE MAKERS Running Club Parents!!

Welcome to the 2018/19 USAG Rheinland-Pfalz Mile Makers Running Club! My name is Jackie Edwards. I am a proud parent of a 6th grade student at Kaiserslautern Middle School and a 3rd grade student at Kaiserslautern Elementary School. I am also a certified school teacher, fitness instructor and cross country/track coach with over three decades of experience running. I am honored to coach the youth in our community and I look forward to enjoying some FITNESS FUN with each and every one of our runners!!

The GOAL of our Mile Makers Running Club is to create a fun and accepting environment to help runners of ALL skill levels learn how to become better runners and lead healthy, happy, active, productive lives on and off ‘the road” while making memories and miles here in Germany!

PRACTICES will take place every MONDAY and FRIDAY from 3:15-4:15 pm. We will meet in front of the KAISERSLAUTERN MIDDLE SCHOOL GYM. Runners should arrive on time wearing comfortable, weather appropriate attire and running shoes. Please be sure to bring water and a watch (if possible) as well. Our practice fun runs will go through both sides of Vogelweh via bridge and sometimes Pulaski. Please keep in mind we will begin with low mileage and gradually increase as runners build endurance and strength. Workouts will be differentiated based on the number of coaches. Also, please keep in mind that we will RUN unless the weather is extremely poor. In such cases, we will workout indoors with circuit training, Zumba, etc.

Runners are encouraged to participate in COMMUNITY RUNS varying from One Mile to 10K. A tentative calendar will be distributed at practice.

Runners are also encouraged to track their miles via the provided RUNNING LOG. Fun Rank Awards will be distributed based on the number of miles ran. Students can log their miles manually on the provided running log with parent signature or if he/she has a GPS watch and access to Strava or a similar app, miles can be logged and shared that way as well. It’s also a good idea to mark your miles on a home calendar as back-up. Please keep in mind that runners may receive bonus points for family runs so be sure to note if any of the miles ran were with a family member! 😊

Again, looking forward to a wonderful season of FITNESS FUN!! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank You,Coach Jackie EdwardsJsedwards76@gmail.com0160-9700-4949
