The correlations between running and life are endless and even now, after running seven years of cross country, I continue to delve deeper and deeper into the lessons that life has to teach me through joy and disappointment, achievement and hardship.
Betsy F lood – 2008
GO BEYOND WHAT YOU EVER THOUGHT POSSIBLE.Cross-country is a very pure and honest sport. There are not
a lot of frills. There are not often huge crowds of spectators
cheering you on. You have to push yourself. You have keep
going even when don’t think you can. It is here you will
discover an inner strength. A belief you can accomplish
things that other say can’t be done.STRENGTH
FOCUS TO COMMIT EVERY MORNING.
EVERY DAY. EVERY WEEK.
As in many things in life, success is the result of the sacrifices
made when no one is watching. Similarly, success in cross
country is the result that comes from the work that is done
“between the spikes” or the sacrifices made between
races. This is a very personally rewarding sport,
but nothing of value comes without sacrifice.
There is no Easter Sunday without Good Friday.
Coa ch Father K irby
