I am taking a page out of my past to motivate my kids in Cross Country. When I was Cross Country it was a standard for all runners that have at least one year of high school cross country to run at least 300 miles. I was able to do this three times when I was in high school. The challenge was made to the 9-11 graders at my school. Some of runners think that it is too hard to run 300 mile in 3 months. REALLY this is a mileage that I now hit in about 6 weeks. I know that there are people how do this in less, good for them. I just don't see how this could be that hard. I remember that it was the first time in my running career that I had to commit to running. It was not easy then but since that commitment was made it was never a big deal to run 300 in 3months. I just want the runners to see the same success that they started to see near the end of this year. I hope there is a number of runners that take this challenge and run with it.
