I Run! First race is Saturday. What are your times for the 5k. I was around 18:30 last year as a junior. I've trained all summer, so I'd say I'm somewhere around 18:00 now. Also, where do you all run?

a kid in my conference in high school ran like a 16:10 his freshman year. He won state a few years in a row, his fastest 5k was a 15:03 in his junior year. After that he moved to Colorado to train for the olympics so I don't know how his senior year went. It was crazy talking to him and running against him.

1/5 of americans can run cross country because they cant find the United States on a map because of map shortages.

It' no different than skiing for fun. Why do you ski for fun? Probaly the same reason I run. It's fun, it's healthy. it's competitive, and it gets you away from everything for a while. It actually makes a lot of sense.

I dont run xc but i run track.. well mostly jump track haha. I'm training now for the indoor and outdoor seasons and its pretty sweet, I only do about 10 miles a week probably because I lift and stuff for jumping.
