"I have never been happier, cross country has made my life 100% better"

I wanted to share my story: So I ran track in middle school, but I wasn't very fast. So high school comes around and all I want to do is run cross country and track. Little did I know I wouldn't be able to run cross country until junior year (this year) due to health reasons freshman and sophomore year. I tried running over the summer with the team, but my health prevented continuation. I thought that joining my junior year would be too late to join and they would think that I quit in the past. But I joined. I have never been happier. Cross country has made my life 100% better. I wouldn't be where I am without this sport and without my team. If you're hesitating joining because you're older, go for it. I did and I haven't looked back.
