I'm Back!

Welcome to the second edition of the T.I.S.O.A. newsletter.The intent for this issue is to prepare everyone for the T.I.S.O.A./NCSRA summer clinic in Burlington.I would like to take this time to thank everyone for his or her kind words delivered to me via the email. It made all the time spent on first edition well worth it. In closing, feel free to contact me with any ideas for stories (as a few have done already) at yellowcard@prodigy.net. Be sure to attend the Summer Clinic as T.I.S.O.A. meets as a group only twice a year. Thanks again and I can’t wait to see you on July 27th

  Sincerely,

Preparing for the Fitness Test

On July 28, the U.S.S.F. State Referee test will be administered at 6:30 a.m. at the Walter M. Williams track in Burlington.+  Although the requirements are not stringent as in the past, this is something for which you prepare. Hopefully, the information below will help you to get ready. If you are just starting a fitness program, the best and most effective way to start is through walking. Continuous walking will slowly prepare your legs for more strenuous activity and help you develop a consistent daily routine. Once you have mastered walking, start to mix running in intervals.Work your way up so that you are running 12 min. continuously.Use the chart below to monitor your progress.
