Running

Cougar Falcon

The Cougar Falcon is known for fast times and PR's. The weather was great for running and it was great to see so many of the runners have great races. 

We had 5 Races, Varsity Girls, Varsity Boys, JV Girls, JV Boys and Freshman. It was an awesome 2.5 hours of races, and so much fun to watch. 






HC Vs. Zeeland West at Unity

The Unity course is known for being challenging, the hill in the woods really challenges the runners mentally and physically. They really have to keep their heads in race and push themselves. 

A B C's of Running today well Backwards  Conceive it, Believe it, Achieve it, that is what we told them today before running. It showed that they really were listening as well, they all had great runs today and proved how strong all of our runners are. 

CONGRATS to the GIRLS Team on another W

So Far

Unity
This was are first meet of the season and it what HOT and sticky. Everyone did a great job. The Coarse was challenging and the heat definitely played a part in slowing everyone down. Thanks to all the runners for staying positive and running hard. 

Orchard View 
Another Warm day at Orchard View. It great race for the runner to get a feel for running a 5k, it is a nice flat course, with varying terrain through the woods and trail and on the grass. We are looking forward to many great races to come.   




Christian School Invite
A quiet calm, cooler Saturday morning made for great racing conditions at the Christian School Invite. We were able to talk strategy and watch some great races. Thank You Madisyn for taking a ton of pictures at the meet.
