Tuesday afternoon I had the opportunity to attend the Hale School Cross Country meet. It was a beautiful late October day and the meet was held at our new course at the Delaney conservation area.
We have an amazing number of students who have run on both our boys and girls cross country team this year. They have been very successful this year and it was quickly obvious why. It was very impressive to see how many student athletes can run 1.8 miles in a very short period of time and look like they took a brief casual stroll through the neighborhood. I was very impressed with the athletic ability and spirit among the team. So many kids mentioned to me they could easily run the course again.
I often say that I love the way the school community comes alive through athletics and extra-curricular activities. It was certainly that was Tuesday as I was amazed by the large number of spectators who were able to view this meet. It really added to the spirit of the day!
