Cross Country

XC pre-season practice officially began on August 16th, marking the beginning of Cross Country. We've been meeting every week day from 9:00 to 11:00am, doing practices at school. I've mostly ran with my teammates, doing the same distance runs but modified slightly to allow me to smoothly transition into running again after a long shin injury.

Tomorrow, we have a Troy Athens invite at Firefighter's Park. I really want to run tomorrow, so hopefully coach will give me the go-ahead to run. However, I mostly expect to be playing my role of Manager tomorrow and getting the time-splits of the runners.

I'd like to set some goals that I'd like to accomplish my(last) season of Cross Country.

1. Run in at least more than 4 races.
2. Run under 25 minutes.
3. Keep a positive attitude about hard practices/races
