Coach Johanna’s hobbies include going on long runs, reading a great book and trying new recipes.
Coach Smith is also a Big Orange Cross Country and Tiger Track and Field mom. Her son, Micah is a 2023 WLS graduate and daughter Mariska runs on the cross country and track and field teams. Her husband, Joe was a standout runner for Bellefontaine. We know Coach Johanna will bring big energy and a wealth of knowledge to the Big Orange Running Club. We’re thankful to her commitment to our program.
Coach Mandy is the new head girls soccer coach at West Liberty-Salem, and will be stepping down from her coaching position with the Big Orange Running Club, but we will continue to follow her coaching template. Don’t be surprised if you see her cheering on our athletes from time to time.
Good luck, Coach Mandy! Thank you for all your love and support. Please join us for Born and Raced in West Liberty’s first virtual races! Our love-themed races take place the week of February 7th-February 14th which include a 5K and a One Mile Fun Run for younger runners. Walkers are also welcome to participate. All participants receive a race shirt (designs below), and the proceeds will benefit the West Liberty-Salem Track and Field program.
The Big Orange Run Club will start Monday, July 27th from 8:00-9:15 a.m. at the Lions Park's south shelter house. Please read the following guidelines before you bring your child to practice. Sign-ups are still available here.
We look forward to seeing our runners soon! Go Big Orange! We are excited to announce we will be holding our annual Big Orange Elementary Run Club starting July 20th. We will have practices on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. When we get a final count as to the number of participants, we will inform families concerning practice times, and safety guidelines that we will ask everyone to follow. As stated earlier, our #1 priority is protecting the well-being of our runners and our community. We will be vigilant in following our state safety guidelines, as well as guidelines set forth by the NFHS and OHSAA.
Please check here for further updates and information as they become available. Until then, please be sure to sign up your runner, and feel free to share this information with others. We look forward to seeing our Big Orange runners soon! |
