Quote:
"At this point in the season, I'm one of about 5 people on
the team who can fill 2 spots when we go to UAA's. So you'd think
there'd be a lot of tension between us, but I really feel like
we're competing together rather than against each other. Every
interval of every workout, it seems like different people are
leading the pack, pushing the pace, and making everyone work
harder. I think the best friends I've made so far this year are on
the cross-country team because we really do work for the team and
not for the individual."
