XC 2014

After a lot of drama, Caz started his second XC campaign.  There was a lot of discussion with family, friends, and coaches about the right thing to do for Caz.  His main focus is track.  And he is a sprinter.  No doubt about it.  We wanted to make sure the distance running involved with XC, wouldn't hinder his sprinting.  The coach agreed to devise a season workout for Caz, and others, who wanted to run, be a part of the XC team, and train for track.
     Many high schools only care about the success of the team.  They don't care about the individual and those that might have a emphasis on sprinting.  They burn those kids out.  We didn't want that happening to Caz.  We had a good conversation with his sprinting coach and XC coach. We came to an agreement and made out decision.
     Today was the first team practice.  Captains practices are over.  This is the real deal.
