We had a great week of training that culminated in two really good performances from the team at the Vista 2-Mile on Friday, and the Wash Park Invit on Saturday. You can see the full results for each race at the links below. For the team competitions we really held our own against some great teams.
For the Vista 2-Mile our boys finished 7th out of 9 teams (every one of these 9 teams will be racing on October 30th, so a very good showing). The ladies finished an incredible 5th of 8 teams (I'm predicting that at least two of those teams will have a season that extends into December for Nike Cross Nationals).
Our JV runners suited up against some strong Varsity squads and held there own very well. The Girls finished 13th of 16 teams with a strong effort and the first ever 5k for over half the girls racing! The boys finished 11th of 18 teams with a great mix of veteran runners and rookies.
