Congrats on another great performance at Hogwarts!  You got out fast and stayed in front of the competition.  Congrats to both Varsity and JV for their 2nd place finishes in a competitive field! Thank you to Mrs. Kerka and Mrs. Bechtel for decorating the bus to get us all in the Harry Potter spirit!

We had 12 lifetime PR's and 3 season PR's, and this is before you've gotten any rest.  Way to run ladies, we are so proud of you!

Golden Spike Winners:

Kara Gillespie - Kara ran to a lifetime PR by almost a minute at Gilmour! She has battled through injuries and setbacks but never gave up! Way to go Kara, you should be very proud of your new PR! You set a great example of determination for the rest of the team!

Maddie Schwartz - Maddie also had a lifetime PR by almost a minute, and it is all do to her a hard work ethic and never quit attitude. She struggled with injuries in the beginning of the season but did a nice job managing and recovering… all the way to a new PR! Way to go Maddie, we are so proud of you!

Runners of the Week:

Christina Kinkelaar - Christina is member of Group 2 Chains and a great leader on the team. Kinks is not only a talented runner but she also leads through her actions on a daily basis. Christina always gives 110% in every workout and she makes even the hardest workouts enjoyable for her teammates! Congrats Kinks!

Abby Lindway - As a freshman Abby has run with confidence and poise. Managing injuries and tough new workouts at the high school level can be overwhelming but Abby has taken everything in stride and run consistently well all season long. She always has a positive attitude and always does her best which lead to a huge :44 second PR at Gilmour! Way to go Abby!!!
