Wow! Cross Country Families and Runners – thank you so much for making Sunday’s preliminary meet a success!!! We are beaming with pride at the grit, tenacity and sportsmanship we witnessed today! The examples are endless!
Parents – It takes many hands to herd our eager runners through the queue and onto to the line, to help warm them up, to feed them, gather them, encourage them…… We appreciate you!
Runners – It takes dedication, will, and strength to practice week after week, to get up on that line and push yourself past your comfort zone. Your strong finishes were awesome! We saw you digging deep and setting a high first bar!
Special shout out to our Kindergarten Runners! How adorable was that!! I saw smiles as they climbed up that last hill!!! Wow!
I have to share that after the meet, my family and I went out to eat. We were all still in our uniforms. I was stopped by a table that had both Fatima and ASB parents at it. They said they were blown away with the presence of our Top 10 finishes and asked “what is your secret”;-)..I felt pretty proud of you guys. Thanks for being our secret.
So proud of all of our runners! This is a great starting benchmark.
