Youth Beach Blast Information 2022

All Without Limits Youth athletes racing the Wilmington Beach blast should arrive between 4 and 4:30pm at Olson Park.

Closer to 4pm is the best time to arrive.  Come find the Without Limits Tent and we will have your bib number and pins.  Please give yourself extra time to arrive at the park.

Without Limits middle School kids and St. Mark Middle School kids wear your Without Limits team shirts.  I was told today that we may be getting St. Mark singlets for the St. Mark School kids by tomorrow.  I am not 100% sure yet, but if we do we will have them at the race.  If you did not get a shirt, I will have them at the race.

All of our kids are invited to race elementary through middle school, however I would advise the sprint team not to race a 3K cross country event.  It is a long way for kids 8-9 or under to run.  If your child has been consistently coming to the distance practices or you know they can run two miles, then we will have a bib for them.  If you are unsure, email Coach Tom at tom@iamwithoutlimits.com

WHAT TO EAT ON RACE DAY

– Oatmeal for breakfast
– A lunch that has a lot of carbs and not a lot of ruffage in the stomach (aka not a burrito)
– Drink lots of fluids with electrolytes throughout the day
– Have a snack after school such as a bagel with honey, a banana, or salty crackers of some kind.
– Continue to sip on fluids.
