"the other kids ran 4 miles and we thought that was crazy"

This is my "i almost didn't run XC story" Me and my friend in middle school never ran over 400m because we thought that was way to far to run. We both played basketball and decided we needed to keep in shape through fall, so we decided to run cross country. On our first day, the others kids ran 4 miles and we thought that was crazy, but we tried it anyway. We walked for most of it, but our coach motivated us to keep trying and by the end of the season we would be amazed by how far we could go. We kept running... This next year is our senior year, and we have a possibility of our team making it to state. Couldn't have asked for a better outcome.
