Cross Country

Cross Country is, in my opinion, the BEST sport in the whole world! I'm not gonna be some arogant fool going around making fun of other sports cause I know how it feels. I know football takes a lot of hard work and practice. Wrestling, Soccer, Swimming, Baseball, Basketball. Most sports do. I'm not here to make fun of them because thats not how i roll. But seriously, To all those ignorant fools out there, Cross Country is in fact a SPORT. So all we do is run... so what! we don't need to have a ball or plays or anything else. Cross country is extremely physical, and mental as well. We train for miles and hours. The races aren't just a bunch of crazy kids running, it's all about planning ahead, pacing, and mentally defeating the other runners. It takes so much hard work. And track as well.. It's not the same at all, but it's still hard. I'm not gonna make fun of the sprinters cause they do like 1/50th of the distance we run. Thats okay, it's hard work. We do it, not for fame (cause its not all that popular)but to see how much we can push ourselves. To the limit.

But seriously, everyone out there who's hating on xc, you need to get over yourself. and btw, Cross country runners are not gay because they wear short shorts. What does that have to do with it. If xc runners are gay, then i guess wrestlers are too cause they wear those tight uniforms. Whatever, I'm just here to say that xc is tight and thats that.
Cross Country practice today killed me, but I felt so happy the other day when i hecka pr'd!
