[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey I’d appreciate if anyone can fill me in on if HS runners keep their phones on them during practice. I have a rising freshman who will try cross country. 
His coach has asked the kids wear a watch so they can time and pace themselves. He said no-frills is fine.
I’m wondering what an example of the No-frills option is - a fit bit? 
So do HS runners take their phones in waist packs, pockets in their shorts? Leave them behind? 
Finally- how about listening to music? Is that ok during practices generally?
I know DS will be nervous that first week of practice and isn’t going to want to do anything that is glaringly different from what most are doing.
Thank you!

Fit-bit might be too small to see when running to check your kid's pace.  As for music, don't let your kid get used to it while running.  Earbuds aren't allowed in competition.

You should have nothing in your pocket on on your person that can bounce around.  Even jewelry is frowned upon (except for ear studs).[/quote]
