Rain, Sweat, and Blood

We have had a good couple of weeks of racing.  Rain and lousy weather makes us appreciate the good weather we can have at races, but also it really shows the grit and soul of the team.

At Rosholt, it is the first time we had four runners on the podium, and at Crandon we almost had the hat trick of a perfect score.  The Florence runner is a friend of the team so it is alright. On the guys side we had Jake who medaled.  How about our Jr. High champions of Austin and Abbey both destroying the competition.  The most important thing is we came out healthy on a pretty rough course.   Now we have to prepare for our Conference meet Monday.
