And then there were two.

Congratulations to Sora and DJ for their state-earning performances. You two ran amazing.

Now I want to be up front about the disappointment we all have about not going to state as a team, especially on the girls side. We shouldn't ignore reality or pretend that the disappointment isn't there. Let's bring it out into the open and use it to motivate us to new and greater heights. Like Rusty said, we can't appreciate the mountain tops without traveling through some valleys. So the bad news is that although we all wanted to take the team(s) to state this year it won't happen. The good news is that we are a young team and it WILL happen next year.

And now for even more good news: A great many on this team ended the year with their fastest 5k time ever. That's huge. If you ran a PR here at districts, hold your head up high!

Watching you all progress and develop this season has been a pure joy, and I'm excited to continue the journey. Thanks to everyone that has made cross country a part of your life because you have made my life a little fuller because of it.
