As I mentioned before, I had been injured with stress fractures in both my shins my freshman, sophomore, and junior year. This year, I trained extra carefully with the girls on the team to make sure that I didn't get injured, and I successfully ran this last meet.
Going into the meet, I had hoped to run with Keya, Anika and Nata, some of the senior girls on the team. I had also wished to beat my time of 28:56 that I got last year when I ran the Old Skool Classic.
I ran through a river, jumped over hay bales, and finished the 3.1 (5k) mile race. All in 27:18 minutes. Faster than last year's run.
Yet, I failed to keep up with the other Senior girls that ran the race, as they had practiced much more and ran much more miles than I had this season.

This race was a mixture of excitement and disappointment. But moreover, it was a show of my perseverance and commitment to the XC team.
