I Enjoyed Cross Country Running

I really miss XC. It’s been a year since my senior season (And only season, couldn’t keep my grades up for a few years) ended. It was probably the greatest experience of my life. I had an awesome coach, awesome teammates, made a few friends (Which my Lonely homeschooled ass needed), It was good for me physically and mentally (Was sitting on my butt most of the time at home before then), I wouldn’t trade that experience for anything in the world. The ONLY thing I would change, is to have better prepared myself during the summer, so I wouldn’t have gotten shin splints, which led to me coming in last at the district finals. My favorite race was the one where I got my PR and was in the top 5 (for the team not overall out of the whole race. I came in like 94th overall).

There’s college xC. I did that as well as HS. It’s increases to 4 mi from 2mi. I was my best in college.

I think it’s changed since then. Nowadays a regular high school meet is a 5k (3.1 miles) College meets go as high as a 10k (6.25 miles) That’s what he national championship distance is for the NCAA@Livingwell
