Well im improving a lot so I dont really have an accurate goal, I ran 5 miles in 31 minutes yesterday so something pretty low.

Id also like like to win my JH conference[approximately 120 kids.] However, I might be varsity this year.

Time is totally irrelevant in XC.

I'm just hoping to finish the season uninjured and in better shape than I started. Also, I would like to peak at the right time this year, because last season I peaked about 2 weeks early and then saw a serious drop off by my conference meet.

Hopefully I'll be scoring varsity, but I know that that is the result of how hard my team mates work, I just want to do moderately well.

I would like to run sub 25 maybe 24:30 by the end of XC season, but I'm only at high 26's, low 27's now.

*We run 7km for XC

Lol. What do you need for Top 25 at Districts?

last year only a 17:58 for 25th place. Its a hard course and it was flooded over

I'm still not sure what I'm doing in the fall, but I'm thinking about doing a half marathon, and if I do it, my goal is sub 1:20.

Although I think a better goal is to be able to keep up with the Dalhousie team.

I've made the perfect goal: to improve.

It will still take hard work to make it happen, but there's a low chance that I won't achieve it.

It's going to be my goal every season.

This was my goal last year. I feel like that's a big reason I didn't get anywhere. Concrete goals help me focus.

sub 21:30.
I really hope I can do that.

#1 goal is to make the team.
#2 goal is 27:30 8k.

And I don't mean to burst anyones bubble or anything, but the people wanting to go sub 1:20 on the hm, do you realize that is 6:04 pace for 13.1 straight miles? Which also happens to be roughly 4.5 x 18:45 5k.

#1 : I would like not to throw up every single race
#2 : i would like to get to 18:59 or below

idk i think its just nerves cause im not exhausted or anything i just have this urge to puke when i get close to the finish line.

help anyone?

there was a guy on our team a couple years ago who used to puke after every race no joke..he was pretty good though and its just cuz he always gave it his all and stuff idk..its not healthy though.

Goals are meant to be hard. That being said, I dropped 9mins from my half marathon time in 2 months so it is possible to drop a lot of time quickly. Whoever had the sub 1:20 goal, gl.

7k xc runs are awesome, aren't they?

Yeah, sub 1:20 will be difficult, but I don't think it's unreachable. I'm doing long runs and my half-marathon split is usually around 1:33, and I'm certainly not racing.

sub 16 attempt for the 3 mile

sub 18 for 5k
Top 20 at state, although I would really like to be top 15 or so
