Just a not-so friendly reminded that no-one is going to put the work in for you. Everyday your teammates rely on you and you alone to get better in order to make them better. Cross Country is a team sport, not your solo dolo deal like golf. Everyday that you get up and feel like you don't wanna run, do it. Your teammates are counting on you. A program can have a good team with 5 men/women, but it takes 7,8,9, and 10 to make it a great one.

Ladies and Gentlemen, if you want to succeed in this dog-eat-dog sport, get your ass up and put in the work.

Until we start winning conference titles and learn to qualify for nationals as a team, we aren't squat. Leave that belief that you're better than others at the door and just show it. No egos. We're a family here to get better.

What about the 6th runner?
