Maren's First High School Cross Country Meet


Maren finished an impressive 45th out of 113 in her first high school cross country meet today in Eau Claire, WI (on the right in royal blue). She ran the 4K course in 20:53. She said she went out too fast, and felt a little sick in the middle of the race. There were other girls who were throwing up while running. Way to push yourselves girls, but yuck. Maren was able to keep her breakfast down, and stayed upright too. Some of the other girls were falling. It was also Maren's first time running with spikes, and she said it felt kind of weird, especially on hardpack and tree roots.

I was depressed I couldn't make the meet, due to the State RR conflict, but I'm looking forward to seeing her run at the next one. You go girl.
