Wow, Cross Country puts you through it all. I guess that's one of the great things about it. All in all I was very proud of how everyone ran today. Without a couple of nagging injuries with some girls and one boy the day was great. We had some outstanding performances in all four races, and a whole lot of heart was shown as well. It was an extremely tough year to go to state in this district, but we have made some huge strides forward this year, and I hope each and every one who has run has gained a love for Cross Country and running in general. At some point this season every one of you ran incredible. Racing is that way. I know, I've run a lot of ok races, but the one great race makes it all worth while, and I think everyone had one of those this year. A couple of incredible moments that happened during this race are...Carson capped off his senior year of Cross Country with the best finish anyone had all season, Shawn ran nearly a 2 minute pr, and had a great time doing it, Ashley Baker ran well enough to be on varsity, and Callie strove and nearly made it to state as in individual (what a race!). We did not accomplish all the goals that we set out to achieve, but there were moments of brilliance by all.
