Anyone interested in getting a solid base this summer should meet with the team this summer. We meet every weekday at 7am and/or 7pm at Soby Field on the track. These practices are organized by the senior runners and for more information please contact Tim Brown (636) 459-0617.
What is Cross Country?
Many people confuse Cross Country, sometimes abbreviated 'XC', with Track. Unlike track Cross Country consists of a single event, 5K or 3.1 miles.
What to do in the summer:
Run!
Run!!
RUN!!!
In the summer its most important just to get in a lot of miles. Mix in some speed work, pace work, and weight lifting and your on track. Some schools require that you run at least 800 miles in the summer to be on varsity.
