Cross Update

I was just thinking that before I head out to Trek I'd give a quick update on how Cross is going, I can't believe how long it's been since I posted about running! Summer Training, one of the things I most look forward to throughout the year. Granted it has involved waking up at 5:30 just about every morning this summer, but it's definitely been worth it! It's awesome to spend time with friends as we push our bodies to the limit on speed days, and sometimes just talk on the easy days. Plus, we do a ton of trail runs, one of the things I most love about running. Our team is also looking good, and most of the time we've had a pretty good showing for our team. We've also got a really solid group of guys, and since we're all around similar times we help push each other through the workouts, and push each other to reach our full potential every time we run. We're all working towards the same goal, and we all demand the best out of ourselves and out of each of our teammates. It's amazing how quickly this summer has gone by, we're already reaching the tail end of our summer training, in fact, our first race is in 19 days, the 22nd. At that point we'll get to see the fruits of our hard summer labors. And then we keep training and racing for that ultimate goal of region and state. It's going to be a very tough season due to the region change. Right now we have 3 of the top 4 schools from last years State Competition in our region. Still, we're looking forward to the challenge, and it's definitely going to be a good season!
