our boys came in 3rd place, compared to last year, they were 25th or something
15:44.0
16:12.2
16:12.3
16:22.2
16:22.7


-----The girl who won the meet ran a 17:10.1, it was awesome. top 9 girls under 18 minutes.

wow, you have a pretty legit guys team

GEEEEEEZ. In Kentucky, it's a good race if the top 2 even get under 18. Which doesn't happen a whole lot.

It's at the Michigan International Speedway. The last 1200 meters is ran on the inside of the race track...basically amazing. The course has 1 slight incline plus 2 quick down hills. Other than that, VERY flat and nice.

we never have courses like that. =/

the weather was perfect also.

our best girl can beat that. What was the winning girl's time

who knows what the course is like though..

Michigan's course = bad (flat and spectator-oriented)

Unless of course it rains and it's a mud bath like NTNs.

I actually like the course a lot. The fact that if a spectator is fast enough to get to a lot of the spots, really helps @ the state meet. My coach was able to book it around the course to yell for us and it was great.

yeah its really not specator oriented unless you are fast enough to run to spots to see them, or else you can see them at the start and at the finish.

and the most the top girls had already run those times at other courses anyway, so it wasnt like it was the course making them run that fast.

^^jeez... that time wouldn't even make it to state here
edit: actually, there is a slim chance that it would, but it's not likely

Although I agree they are fighting against the weather haha

yeaah same.

But again, how do we know what their courses are like?? Maybe they're super hard, you cant compare xc times really.

I don't think a 20:40 up a mountain would make it here.
