"So i signed up and boy was I in for the best experience of my life"

In middle school I told my self I would never ever do anything more than a 400. But whenever I saw the distance team they always looked like they were having the best time of their lives and they were always tighter and always laughing. But I kept telling myself that I hated long distance more than anything. But by 9th grade my Coach had convinced me to try it out. So I signed up and boy was I in for the best experience of my life. XC changed how I saw running in general and it made me dedicate myself more than I ever had before. Because of XC I met my best friends and I learned so much about life. Don't get me wrong I still hate it sometimes but I couldn't imagine doing anything else.
