Senior Year In Cross Country
Being senior year these is my last time in each sport. Cross country is over and now it is time to focus on track. Track is my favorite sport since I have made it to state twice now. But we lost one of our members on the 4 b 8 team so it is going to a lot harder to make it to state this year. But I want to make it since this is it, senior year. So this year I am going to try to make it in the open 800. I just got cleared to run last week to even run again since I got hurt in cross country and so my workouts are about to start again. I am hoping I will be in shape enough for track when it comes around I really want to do good this year but I hope I don’t get hurt again like in cross country. Getting hurt really messed up my plans for my last

    Personal Narrative: My First Track

    Weighing 225 pounds, I recognized that I needed to lose weight. Losing weight wasn't that much of a challenge because I went to practice and walked five miles home. Now I weigh 170 pounds. In my first 400 meters race, I ran in 56.4 seconds, and I recently ran the same race in only 51 seconds. I went to both championships last year before I failed to qualify for the next round. However, going from nowhere to possibly breaking the school record this year has motivated me to do greater things in life. Even though track wasn't a life-changing experience, the small things I got out of it were important. For example, I lost weight and gained dedication, medals, and friends. I also learned that if I make the effort, tremendous things are…

    The Mcfarland Cross Country Team

    Ricky Williams, a NFL player, once said, “ A team takes on the personality of the head coach.” If one were to construe the meaning of this quote, then one would look at Coach Jim White and the McFarland cross country team. The kids of the McFarland cross country team were known as pickers in the past, but Coach White was able to edify them into the cross country state final champions. Because of the characters Coach White possess, the McFarland cross country team was able to win the state finals. Coach White is a key character in the movie because he demonstrates responsible, strict, and caring character.…

    Personal Narrative: Saint Joseph Cross Country Team

    In 2008, I was a eight year old and, regrettably, a member of the Saint Joseph Cross Country team. I consistently finished in the last five runners, and despised every moment that I spent training for the race season. Even though I began running cross country in elementary school, I was never a natural. After years, I was allowed to quit. By the time I was a freshman in high school, I had forgotten my hatred of running. After much enticement from my mother - a runner herself - I joined Bowling Green High School’s Cross Country team. Halfway through the first practice, I remembered every reason why I had quit the sport years earlier. Regardless of how much I begged my mom, she insisted that I finish the season. I was stuck with two choices:…

    Personal Narrative: Modified Track And Field

    I have been running since I started Modified Track and Field in the seventh grade. Running has been a part of my life ever since then. When I decided to join track I felt as though it was the worst mistake that I could have ever made, simply because i did not like running as a child. After trying it for the first year and not giving up I enjoyed it very much and that is when I stated that I would continue to run track till I graduated high school. Then came ninth grade and not only did I continue to do Outdoor Track but I also joined Indoor Track and it helped me improve with my running for Outdoor Track. I participated in Soccer from sixth grade till ninth grade, because come tenth grade I realized I had a strong passion for running,…

    Cross Country Team Research Paper

    Participating on the Sutton High School cross country team has been one of the most rewarding yet stressful experiences of my life. For the past five years the Sutton cross country team has been a second home to me and season after season I return thirsting to vanquish a competitive fire. Although I'm ecstatic about competing this year, I was not always this happy about running. Five years ago I decided to try out for a sports team that involved less hand eye coordination (seeing how I have none) and tried out for the cross country team at my school. Almost immediately did I find out that a simple task like running could become much more strenuous not only on my legs and lungs but on the mind. While my body adjusts to the challenges of dirt…

    Great Runner Dedication

    When I first began my running career, I saw little hope in becoming a good runner. It wasn’t until after cross country ended that I was told by my coach,”You have all the tools available to you, now use them.” At the time I didn’t understand what he meant, but when I finally understood it I used it as a motivator to push myself farther and farther. The support of my coaches coupled with the encouragement given by my teammates gave a me an even larger boost in confidence. Before my first relay I clearly remember hearing my teammates telling me not to undermine my ability by thinking about my injury. In that relay I ran the second fastest leg, a major step in the right direction. After that meet I began to see a major improvement over the previous track season, and with that knowledge I have put it to heart and began the climb to…

    Cross Country, Then and Now

    For the past six years of my life, I ran for the Eureka Springs High School cross country team. After graduation, I was given the opportunity to run for the Golden Suns cross country team at Arkansas Tech University. In a matter of six months, my cross country experiences and habits were changed. Often times, there are similarities between two subjects such as these, but in this case, only the differences are obvious. There are changes in not only the way that I run, but the team I ran with, the coach I ran under, and the person I am when I run. These changes have caused me to see what I can do as a runner and a college student.…

    Sophomore Year In High School

    High school is a different experience for everyone. The first three years really blend together and do not seem important, but senior year is completely different. Freshman year was full of confusion, learning an array of new things. Sophomore year was where life started to get fun and you “belonged” in the high school. Junior year was where you see the little light at the end of the tunnel, but it was filled with anxiety and frustration. Senior year is where it all becomes worth it and the rest of your life is finally going to begin.…
