M.I.S.; here we come!

This past week our girls' and boys' cross country teams made it to states! What we worked for all season long finally was a reality. It's not an easy task to do. We worked from day one and all of us got so much better. We were so excited when we found out we got second place at regionals to advance to the state meet this Saturday. It wasn't just one of us who made this happen; it was a team contribution. All of us had to run good for us to qualify. It was terrible weather this past Saturday, but we put it all out there and ran our hearts out to get what we wanted. It is a great feeling when I crossed that finish line knowing that not once did I hold back anything from that race. I had a rough season being injured and only running for three weeks before regionals. I was so nervous, but the time I had to work I never gave up. I had to be confident. It was an even better feeling when I knew our whole team made it to states, because that is what it's all about; giving everything you got for the team. I'm so excited to be apart of this weekend after my whole season was so upsetting. We will have so much fun and we worked so hard for it. M.I.S.; here we come!
