Great Job at region. There were a lot of great races and a lot of people came prepared ran there personal best. The team set some individual goals and almost everyone reached those goals that they were shooting for. I am proud of you guys this season and I am excited to see where you will be in the future.
It is hard to be part of such a great region. If you are not ready and prepared then it will chew you up and spit you out. It is hard not to go to state. It is hard to not reach all of our team goals. But this is a great learning experience. It is a horrible feeling that we never want again. We need to take what happened and change the things that didn't work. We need to be better at doing the little things. We need to make sure that we are mentally prepared and ready to go, not only in races, but in workouts as well. We need to make sure we are helping everyone on the team become better. We need to make sure we are not sorting ourselves from our potential. Great moments come from great opportunities and we start preparing for those great opportunities by the little things we do months and months before.
The great thing about being part of a great region is;
1) Being part of a hard region makes us better. We have to step up to the challenge that are in front of us. Which makes us better athletes and people. If we were part of those weaker regions then we would be content with being mediocre. Because our region is tough we become better and more refined. We realize that it will take a lot hard work and dedication to be successful. We welcome and except and are excited for this challenge as a member of Riverton High Cross Country.
2) Because it is hard when you do succeed it means more. Thomas Paine said, yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly."
Congrats to the boys team for making it to state and Mckayla for making it individually and running such a great race.
