Notes
Could there have been any worse way to end my HS XC career? Honestly I don't think so. The race was awful from almost any standpoint. I can't let this race smudge the incredible memories I will always look back on over the past four years, even though my success in XC has been very limited. Now it's time to keep moving forward; the only thing I know for sure is that I have some very big goals to accomplish for track. One of my fatal flaws early in the summer was not evaluating the weight this season would have. Now I don't have a choice. Right now, I'm looking at goals of 4:13 in the full mile and 1:53-1:54 in the 800. Those times would place me pretty high up on the podium and give me a good chance at running for real in college. By now, I know what it takes to get there and I'm ready to start taking those steps.
