On the Run


-Haley Rodeffer

The girls cross country team is at it again, with Coach Fox and Coach Tracy at the lead. Practicing every day for a couple hours except Wednesdays, the girls are training for a successful season. After stretching, the team takes off doing either hill runs, intervals, or organ drills. Sometimes the team will run to UDF and get an ice cream!Madison McWhorter, 7th grade runner, says, “I like to run! Practice can be hard but it gets easier over time. I like how the coaches do fun activities like running to UDF or Speedway. I did cross country hoping to build up my soccer skills.” Good luck Madison and the rest of you runners at your next race. Cross Country is unlike any other sport; there may not be offense or defense, but it still relies heavily on goal setting and teamwork in order to be successful. Well, gotta run!
