What does "running age" mean?


WTPR track and field complies with AAU regulations, where a child's "running age" is defined by how old the child will be on December 31st of the track season. For example, an 8 year old child with a November birthday, will run as an 9 year old this season.

What nights do we practice?


Practices are Monday, Wednesday, and Thusrday, 6:30pm to 8:00pm.

However, 5-8 year olds will only practice 2 nights.

How long are the track meets?


A track meet can last several hours.  We encourage parents to volunteer to keep the meets going as efficiently as possible.
