Congratulations for a fantastic race yesterday! The That course is a flat, super fast course! Here are some good things about yesterday:
- The boys team finished 3rd out of 15 teams.
- The girls finished 5th out of 14 teams.
- Individually there were some big improvements and some PRs. Everyone who ran there last year ran faster this year. (Keep in mind that the weather last year was very hot!)
- Both the boys and the girls team average times (for the first five runners) was faster than last year.
- We had lots of 800 meter heroes (much better than 100 heroes) in the home stretch. Many of our you passed people in the field and finished strong.
- We had five individuals finish in the top 25 and bring home new, bright t-shirts.
- There was also lots of positive comments about racing and some really good goal setting.
- For our returning runners, there were six new PRs and all of our new runners ran faster than at Great Glen, so they set new PRs too.

And just another reminder about the team store (this is copied and pasted from my previous email):
On another note, as you know, athletes will be able to purchase some team gear this year. There will be green shirts that will have the 300 mile club on the back. We are ordering those from Calico Graphics in town and we will let you know how to order and how much those will be.You will also be able to purchase items at this online store. These items are more expensive, but these items are the type of items that can last for your four years of running cross-country. Most of the girls and boys have the zip shirts, as do I, and they are really good quality, warm shirts - excellent for a crisp fall day when we have a meet! The boys shirt is a bit different than last year's design, but still very similar. Also, I tried to get green socks and pants, but neither were available.Because of our fundraising efforts and help with the Muddy Moose race and the Intro. to cross country series this summer, everyone on the team gets $20 to go towards an item. If you buy something online, use the coupon code: cc20. If you want to use the $20 towards the 300 mile shirt (the one not in the online store), we will cover $20 of the cost (TBD).The store will close next Thursday and those items will take 2 weeks to arrive. For the 300 mile shirts, Brodie and Max will give us the details about that... hopefully this weekend or on Tuesday.
See you all today at practice!
