XC Related~

Why do X-C?: In 6th grade I did it so that I could have something to do after school. I stayed until 8th grade because of the company and because by that year, I could become captain - everyone likes a little authority, right? From there, what kept me coming back for more in HHS was the fact that I broke my p.r. by 40 secs. in the last race. I got excited about that and wanted to do more. So I did it in my freshman year and stayed because of the company, plus because of the goals that I had yet to achieve. I guess that is wwhat will always keep me coming back. Also, it feels good to be part of the winningest tradition at HHS!!!!!!!

Part of XC course: 1/2-way through backwoods because by that time I have recovered from the Bowl and then it is fun to tick people off (from the other team) by passing them in the last minute or so!
