XC CAMP

This years XC camp was one of the best of all time for many reasons. We had the biggest turn out to camp we have ever had. This shows our teams commitment and dedication to success. We have had great summer training so far and it is really showing in so many ways.

In our 5* MILE team relay we had the best times ever posted with numerous PR's. This was lead by Clay, Michael, Brady all breaking the course record on the boys side and Mckayla smashing the course record by 45 seconds on the girls side. There were a few near course record breaks by Brandon and Sam only 2 and 7 seconds off respectively. Maddie pushed her self forward to become 3rd all time and Brooklyn Dutton, coming out of nowhere, now has the 4th fastest girls time. With Brooke, Katie and Zoe within seconds behind her. For results click HERE

I feel that as a team we become a lot closer. I was very inspired by Katie and Maddie talking about the importance of believing in yourselves and giving it all for the team even when people don't believe in you. I also appreciated Coach Worthlin giving us the vision of our potential as athletes and how we can become more than what we believe we can.

Thanks everyone who made this a great camp. Thanks for the great attitudes you all have. Thanks for making everyone feel like there are a part of the team. You all are great and us as coaches are proud to be associated with you.

TRUE GRIT

Athletes with grit are the most exiting watch.They make you want stand on your chairs and cheer. These are the people you never want miss watching.You feel that no matter the odds they will pull through. This is because they are not afraid to TAKE RISK and put themselves in a position to accomplish their goals. No matter the pain or anguish or how hard it is they show extreme determination and push through it.They do this knowing that no matter the outcome they succeed if they try. They know that life is all about becoming better and overcoming adversity. Life is more beautiful, more memorable and more enjoyable when you put your whole heart and effort into it. A person with true grit never has regrets or what ifs.

NOTHING WORTH HAVING COMES WITHOUT HARD WORK.

Developing a Gritty Mentality
1. Test your bodies limits in practice and in races.
2. Set goals. Make game plans
3. Have a passion for life.
4. Have a good attitude.
5. Fulfill and make commitments
6. Takes Risk(do not fear failure)

If there is anything I want you to learn while participating in XC at Riverton is that if you do something you do it with your best effort with your whole heart and soul. Enjoy the process and the outcome will come.

Riverton High runners are gritty, have no regrets, take risks and enjoy life.
