I asked this group to tell me what they love about cross-country. Several answers follow…
“With camp week, we all get closer together.”
“We laugh about everything.”
“Even if you fall, you laugh about it.”
“People encourage you constantly.”
“No cuts.”
“Coaches still encourage you, no matter if you’re running 22 minutes or 28 minutes.”
“Lots of memories, and it’s fun.”
“Keep your eyes on the prize, your eyes toward the finish. It’s like life, keeping your eyes on the ultimate prize.”
