This year we'll be adding a fitness program, it is still in the works, so keep an eye on this spot for more news to come as we get closer to the start of our 2010 season. 
 
If you want to get into shape, then this is the program for you. The plan so far is that we will warm up at the same time as the kids, then we have at least 1 hour to do our own workout. We'll have to leave the track area as it is reserved for the kids, but we will have an area to do our own work outs. be ready to get into shape as we start this decade off right! There will be a fee and a registration, so do keep an eye here for more information.
