That helps a lot! I sorta thought there were good reasons. I just didn't see them. So now I'm wondering, in preparation for a hard xc season, would you suggest running every day in the summer, or would this burn me out for the season. I did run every day last year, and I was a little disappointed in how little I got ahead of classmates who hardly ran any miles before practice started. Maybe I overdid it? Anyone with similar experiences?

Thank you so much for posting these links. My husband and I are already thinking about next year's cross country season, though this one just ended. Our boys ended up placing 5th in the state this year, and we think we can do even better next year, so we're looking for info on summer training schedules. Good stuff!

I just realized "our boys" in my last post sounded like I meant our sons. I meant our boys' team that we coach together!
