Runners take your mark, the starter directs. The runnerhave never felt this many nerves and it seems like an eternitbefore the gunshot. BANG! The runners are off.The stakes were never higher and this was the season to putthe Bloomington South cross country team on its backsurprisingly feel calm and relaxed, Franklin said. I dont Panything get to my head. The distance was not intimidating forthe runners, but it took skill to pace themselves for the 3.1 miles.Even though senior Macy Evans was one of the more dominantrunners but still ran into issues with consistency. I am not goodat pacing myself on some courses, Evans said. My splits are allover the place.The team had many hard workers, pushing at every practiceand making sure they eat well. Most people preferred pasta asjtheir meal the night before a race, but freshman Ian Shaw hadanother tasty dinner on his list - I like to eat peanut butter andhoney sandwiches. I guess just because it tastes good.In addition to Shaw, many freshmen joined the team thisjyear. Running varsity made freshman Zoe Rauh anxious inanticipation. I was worried how I would do and what I would dfor the team, Rauh said.With clutch performances in th regular and post season,both the girls and boys team made their way to State. The boy:finished twenty-first with an average time of 16:49, and the girlsquad placed in the top 20. Through adversity and challenges,these groups showed that BHSS XC is one of the top programs inthe state of Indiana.- ROBINSON GONYdine and DASHFor breakfast, I typically have abagel and chocolate milk.I never drink soda or eatany unhealthy snacks.- DawsonHoodQ-P 0-£ V-3 0-L :sJ8MSuyA |
