Rest Days

During cross country, we run 6 days a week at a very intense level. When you have a chance for rest on Sundays you need to take it. Your body will use this day to rebuild and recover in preparation for the upcoming week. If you do not give your body this rest, you make yourself more prone to injury, as well as run the risk of hurting your performance because you will not be able to run the workouts at the proper speeds.

inspirations

1. Stress improvement, not perfection (or winning). 2. Don't take yourself too seriously; laugh at yourself and have fun. 3. Set attainable goals; reach them and then set higher ones. 4. Be positive, walk tall, smile often, don't complain or procrastinate. 5. Prepare purposely, but don't overtrain. 6. Remember- Sports is a game and meant to be enjoyable.
