Here we go:

If you ran track I would personally recommend that you take a week off and let your body recover.   That is important for younger runners especially.  Maybe jog a little or ride a bike or something but no hard workouts.

 If you did not run track I would recommend that you start doing a little running to warm up those legs for some awesome summer training.  2-3 miles per day depending on your experience. Or whatever feels good.  If you've never run before start with 1 mile or whatever you can.

 Heres some info on the upcoming Utah Summer Games:

There is a 5k (3.1 miles) and 10k (6.2 miles) road race.  The 5k is on June 14.  The 10k is on June 13.  Fee is $25 if registered before June 1 and $35 if after June 1.  Online registration closes June 11 at 5 pm.  Day of Race registration is $40.  Check out www.utahsummergames.org/sports/roadraces.html for more info.

 There are also Track events as well.  (800, 1500, 3000, 5000, etc)  Check out www.utahsummergames.org/sports/track.html  for more info.  Those events are on June 20th and 21st.

Recover from what? Running track is barely running. No need for a week off, one should start right away building base before the last remnants of aerobic fitness are gone. It is important to do it slow, however.
